42nd Street

In the heart of little old New York

You'll find a thoroughfare

It's the part of little old New York

That runs into Times Square

A crazy quilt that "Wall Street Jack" built

If you've got a little time to spare

I want to take you there

Come and meet those dancing feet

On the avenue I'm taking you to

Come and meet

Those dancing feet

On the avenue I'm taking you to

Forty-Second Street

Hear the beat

Of dancing feet

It's the song I love the melody of

Forty-Second Street

Little nifties from the Fifties

Innocent and sweet;

Sexy ladies from the Eighties

Who are indiscreet

They're side by side

They're glorified

Where the underworld can meet the elite

Where the underworld can meet the elite

Forty

Second Street
