| 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 |
