Rod Stewart
Manhattan
[Verse 1: Rod Stewart, Bette Midler & Both]
Summer journeys to Niagra
And to other places aggravate 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

[Verse 2: Rod Stewart, Bette Midler & Both]
We'll have Manhattan
The Bronx and Staten Island, too
It's lovely going through the zoo
(Sing to me, Bette, come on)
It's very fancy
On old Delancy street you know (I know)
The subway charms us so
When balmy breezes blow to and fro

[Chorus: Rod Stewart, Bette Midler & Both]
I'd like to take a (Yes) sail on Jamaica Bay with you
And fair Canarsie's Lake, we'll view
The city's bustle cannot destroy
Ooh-ooh, the dreams of a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy (Woah, yeah)
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Rod Stewart, Bette Midler & Both]
And tell me what street
Compares with Mott Street in July?
Sweet pushcarts gently gliding, gently gliding by
The great big city's a wonderous toy
Ooh, just made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
