42nd Street lyrics

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,

42nd Street.

Hear the beat of dancing feet,

It's the song I love the melody of,

42nd Street.

Little "nifties" from the '50s,

Innocent and sweet;

Sexy ladies from the '80s,

Who are indiscreet.

Oh, they're side by side, they're glorified

Where the underworld can meet the elite,

42nd Street.

Little "nifties" from the '50s,

Innocent and sweet;

Sexy ladies from the '80s,

Who are indiscreet.

Oh, they're side by side, they're glorified

Where the underworld can meet the elite,

Naughty, bawdy, gaudy, sporty 42nd Street
