Lyrics Lullaby Of Broadway - Jimmy Rushing, Buck Clayton And His Orchestra

Lullaby Of Broadway

Come on along and listen to, the lullaby of Broadway
The hip hooray and ballyhoo, the lullaby of Broadway
The rumble of a subway train, the rattle of the taxis
The daffydils who entertain, at Angelo’s and Maxi’s
When a Broadway baby says good night, it’s early in the morning
Manhattan babies don’t sleep tight until the dawn:
Good night, baby
Good night, milkman’s on his way
Sleep tight, baby
Sleep tight, let’s call it a day.
Hey!
Come on along and listen to, the lullaby of Broadway
The hi-dee-hi and boop-a-doo, the lullaby of Broadway
The band begins to go to town, and everyone goes crazy
You rock-a-bye your baby round, 'til everything gets hazy
Hush-a-bye I’ll buy you this and that, you hear a daddy saying
And baby goes home to her flat, to sleep all day:
Good night, baby
Good night, milkman’s on his way
Sleep tight, baby
Sleep tight,
Let’s call it a day — - -
Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway
