42nd Street movie - Lullaby of Broadway lyrics

rate me

<br>

Peggy:<br>

[Spoken]<br>

I'm sorry show business isn't for me. I'm goin' back to Allentown!<br>

<br>

Julian:<br>

What was the word you've just said, Allentown?<br>

I'm offering you a chance to star in biggest musical<br>

Broadway's seen in twenty years and you say: "Allentown?"<br>

<br>

[Singing]<br>

Come on along and listen to <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The hip hooray and bally hoo, <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The rumble of the subway train,<br>

The rattle of the taxis.<br>

The daffy-dills who entertain<br>

At Angelo's and Maxie's.<br>

<br>

When a Broadway baby says "Good night,"<br>

It's early in the morning.<br>

Manhattan babies don't sleep tight until the dawn:<br>

Good night, baby,<br>

Good night, milkman's on his way.<br>

Sleep tight, baby,<br>

Sleep tight, let's call it a day,<br>

Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway.<br>

<br>

Ensemble:<br>

Come on along and listen to <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The hidee hi and boopa doo, <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The band begins to go to town,<br>

And ev'ryone goes crazy.<br>

You rock-a-bye your baby 'round <br>

'Til ev'rything gets hazy.<br>

<br>

Hush-a-bye, "I'll buy you this and that,"<br>

You hear a daddy sayin'.<br>

And baby goes home to her flat<br>

To sleep all day:<br>

Good night, baby,<br>

Good night, milkman's on his way.<br>

Sleep tight, baby,<br>

Sleep tight, let's call it a day!<br>

Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway.<br>

<br>

Come on along and listen to <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The hip hooray and bally hoo, <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The rumble of the subway train,<br>

The rattle of the taxis.<br>

The daffy-dills who entertain<br>

Until the dawn:<br>

Good night, baby,<br>

Good night, milkman's on his way.<br>

<br>

Peggy:<br>

[Spoken]<br>

I'll do it!<br>

<br>

Ensemble:<br>

[Cheers!]<br>

<br>

[Singing]<br>

Come on along-<br>

Come on along and listen to <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The hidee hi and boopa doo, <br>

The lullaby of Broadway.<br>

The band begins to go to town,<br>

And ev'ryone goes crazy.<br>

You rock-a-bye your baby 'round <br>

And sleep all day!<br>

Listen to the lullaby of <br>

Old Broadway!<br>
