I jump up at down, shake out the sun
Laugh like a loon; everything is fun It's crazy, but I'm in love I act like a fool; what do I care? I'll be a fool as long as you're there It's crazy, but I'm in love I spread my wings and then I fly All around the city The world's my sweet potato pie And I'm sittin' mighty pretty I sleep by the stars, chase that old moon Fall into the bed hummin' a tune It's crazy, but I'm in love |

Summer journeys to Niag'ra
and to other places aggra- vate all our cares. We'll save our fares! I've a cozy little flat in what is known as old Manhattan we'll settle down right here in town! We'll have Manhattan the Bronx and Staten Island too. It's lovely going through the zoo! It's very fancy on old Delancy street you know. The subway charms us so when balmy breezes blow to and fro. And tell me what street compares with Mott Street in July? Sweet pushcarts gently gli-ding by. The great big city's a wonderous toy just made for a girl and boy. We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy! We'll go to Yonkers Where true love conquers In the whiles And starve together dear, in Chiles We'll go to Coney And eat baloney on a roll In Central Park we'll stroll Where our first kiss we stole Soul to soul And ""My Fair Lady"" is a terrific show they say We both may see it close, some day The city's glamour can never spoil The dreams of a boy and goil We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy! Transcribed by Todd Peach . c o m> (from this specific recording) Guy from Bath England sent me this more complete version: VERSE Summer journeys to Niag'ra And to other places aggra- vate all our cares. We'll save our fares; I've a cozy little flat in What is known as old Manhattan, We'll settle down Right here in town. CHORUS 1 We'll have Manhattan, The Bronx and Staten Island too. It's lovely going through the Zoo. It's very fancy On old Delancey Street you know. The subway charms us so, When balmy breezes blow To and fro. And tell me what street Compares with Mott Street In July? Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by. The great big city's a wondrous toy Just made for a girl and boy -- We'll turn Manhattan Into an isle of joy. CHORUS 2 We'll go to Greenwich, Where modern men itch To be free, And Bowling Green you'll see with me. We'll bathe at Brighton, The fish you'll frighten When you're in, Your bathing suit so thin Will make the shellfish grin, Fin to fin. I'd like to take a Sail on Jamaica Bay with you, And fair Canarsie's Lakes we'll view. The city's bustle cannot destroy The dreams of a girl and boy -- We'll turn Manhattan Into an isle of joy. CHORUS 3 We'll go to Yonkers, Where true love conquers In the wilds And starve together, dear, in Childs'. We'll go to Coney And eat bologny On a roll, In Central Park we'll stroll Where our first kiss we stole, Soul to soul. And South Pacific Is a terrific Show they say, We both may see it close some day. The city's clamour can never spoil The dreams of a boy and goil -- We'll turn Manhattan Into an isle of joy. CHORUS 4 We'll have Manhattan, The Bronx and Staten Island too, We'll try to cross Fifth Avenue. As black as onyx We'll find the Bronix Park Express, Our Flatbush flat, I guess, Will be a great success, More or less. A short vacation On Inspiration Point we'll spend, And in the station house we'll end. But Civic Virtue cannot destroy The dreams of a girl and boy -- We'll turn Manhattan Into an isle of joy! |

Did you see that I've got a lot to learn?
Well don't think I'm trying not to learn, Since this is the perfect spot to learn - Oooh, teach me tonight! Let's start with the ABC of it, Roll right down to the XYZ of it Help me solve the mystery of it, Teach me tonight! The sky's a blackboard high above you, If a shooting star goes by, I'll use that star, to write I love you, A thousand times across the sky. One thing isn't very clear my love, Should the teacher stand so near my love? Graduation's almost here my love, Come on and teach me tonight. I'll use that star to write I love you, A thousand times across the sky, One thing isn't very clear my love Should the teacher stand so near my love, Graduation's almost here my love, Teach me......please teach me tonight! |

I know a little bit about a lot o' things,
But I don't know enough about you. Just when I think you're mine, You try a different line, And baby, what can I do? I read the latest news, No buttons on my shoes, But baby, I'm confused about you. You get me in a spin, Oh what a stew I'm in, 'Cause I don't know enough about you. Jack of all trades, master of none, And isn't it a shame, I'm so sure that you'd be good for me, If you'd only play my game! You know I went to school, And I'm nobody's fool, That is to say until I met you! I know a little bit about a lot o' things, But I don't know enough about you. You know I went to school, And I'm nobody's fool, That is to say until I met you! I know a little bit about a lot o' things, But I don't know enough about you. I know a little bit about biology, And a little more about psychology, I'm a little gem in geology, But I don't know enough about you. I guess Id better get out the encyclopedia And fresh up on from "shmer" to "shmoo", mmmm, 'Cause I don't know enough about you. |

No cares for me
I'm happy as I can be I learn to love and to live Devil may care No cares and woes Whatever comes later goes That's how I'll take and I'll give Devil may care When the day is through, I suffer no regrets I know that he who frets, loses the night For only a fool, thinks he can hold back the dawn He was wise to never tries to revise what's past and gone Live love today, let come tomorrow or May Don't even stop for a sigh, it doesn't help if you cry That's how I live and I'll die Devil may care |

Ooh, ooh, ooh
What a little moonlight can do Ooh, ooh, ooh What a little moonlight can do to you You're in love Your heart's a flutter and all day long You only shutter Cuz your poor tongue Just won't utter the words I love you Ooh, ooh, ooh What a little moonlight can do Wait a while Till a little moonbeam comes peepin' through You'll get bold You can't resist him And all you'll say When you have kissed him is Ooh, ooh, ooh What a little moonlight can do |

I wish you bluebirds in the spring
To give your heart a song to sing, And then a kiss, but more than this, I wish you love. And in July, a lemonade To cool you in some leafy glade; I wish you health, and more than wealth, I wish you love. My breaking heart and I agree That you and I could never be, So with my best, my very best, I set you free. I wish you shelter from the storm, A cozy fire to keep you warm; But most of all, when showflakes fall, I wish you love. |
