Come on along and listen to
The lullaby of Broadway!
The hip hooray and ballyhoo,
The lullaby of Broadway!
The rumble of the subway train,
The rattle of the taxis.
The daffodils, who entertain
At Angelo's and Maxi's.
When the Broadway baby says good night,
It's early in the morning.
Manhattan babies don't sleep tight
Until the dawn.
Good night, baby!
Good night, the milkman's on his way!
Sleep tight, baby!
Sleep tight, let's call it a day! Hey!
The band begins to go to town
And everyone goes crazy.
You rock-a-bye your baby 'round,
'til everything gets hazy.
Hush-a-bye, I'll buy you this and that,
You hear a daddy saying
And baby goes home to her flat
To sleep all day.
Good night, baby...
Listen to the lullaby
Of old... Broad...way...!
