Manhattan

A hotel room with a street below

People come and people go

All the friends that we used to know

Ain't coming back

Ain't coming back

Ain't coming back

You say your heart has a rhythm

Well I see you got your secret on

You say-ay and nothing to hide

You and your secret life

Don't look at the moon tonight

You'll never be, never be, never be Manhattan

Don't look at the moon tonight

You can never be, never be, never be, never be Manhattan

Little one, with your badge

And your suitcase on

No suit and your hair's not right

'Cause nobody knows this woman by your side

It's not who you know, it's the useful woman by your side

It's not who you know, it's a useful woman by your side

Manhattan

See your heart has a rhythm

Well I see you got your secret on

You say-ay and nothing to hide

You and your secret life

Don't look at the moon tonight

You'll never be, never be, never be Manhattan

Don't look at the moon tonight

You can never be, never be, never be, never be Manhattan

See your heart has a rhythm

You got your secret on

Say you got nothing to hide

You, you, you and your secret life

You'll never be, never be, never be Manhattan

Howling at me, howling at you

Howling at me, howling at you

Liberty in the basement light

Free speech, lipstick in the moonlight

Howling to get me, howlin’ to get you

In Harlem, in a dark back room

Dancing to a different tune

Howling at me, howling at you
