There's a Boat Dat's Leavin Soon for New York

There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York

Come with me, that's where we belong, mister

You and me can live that high life in New York

Come with me, there you can't go wrong, mister

We'll buy us the swellest mansion

Up on upper Fifth Avenue

And through Harlem we'll go a-struttin', we'll go a-struttin'

And there'll be nothin' too good for you

I'll dress up in silks and satins

And in the latest Paris styles

All the blues you'll be forgettin', you'll be forgettin'

There'll be no frettin', just nothin' but smiles

Come along with me, that's the place

Don't be a fool, come along, come along

There's a boat that's leavin' soon for New York

Come with me, that's where we belong, mister

That's where we belong

We'll buy us the swellest mansion

Up on upper Fifth Avenue

And through Harlem we'll go a-struttin', we'll go a-struttin'

And there'll be nothin' too good for you

I'll dress up in silks and satins

And in the latest Paris styles

All the blues you'll be forgettin', you'll be forgettin'

There'll be no frettin', just nothin' but smiles

Come along with me, that's the place

Don't be a fool, come along, come along

There's a boat leavin' soon for New York

Come with me, that's where we belong, mister

That's where we belong
