Lyrics
There's a boat that's leaving soon for New York
Come with me, that's where we belong, sister
You and me can live that high life in New York
Come with me, there you can't go wrong, sister
I'll buy you the swellest mansion
Up on upper Fifth Avenue
And through Harlem we'll go a-struttin'
We'll go a-struttin'
And there'll be nothin' too good for you
I'll dress you in silk and satins
In the latest Paris styles
All the blues you'll be forgettin'
You'll be forgettin'
There'll be no frettin', just nothin' but smiles
There's a boat that's leaving soon for New York
Come with me, that's where we belong, sister
That's where we belong
You and me can live the high life in New York
Come with me, there you can't go wrong, sister
I'll dress you in silk and satins
In the latest Paris styles
And the blues you'll be forgettin'
You'll be forgettin'
There'll be no frettin', just nothin' but smiles
There's a boat that's leaving soon for New York
Come with me, that's where we belong, sister
That's where we belong
