Lullaby of Broadway Lyrics by Original Broadway Cast of 42nd Street

42nd Street - Original Broadway Cast Recording

0

[PEGGY, spoken]
I'm sorry show business isn't for me, I'm goin' back to Allentown!
[JULIAN, spoken]
What was the word you've just said, Allentown?
I'm offering you a chance to star in the biggest musical
Broadway's seen in twenty years and you say: "Allentown?"
(Sung)
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 taxi's
The daffy-dills who entertain
At Angelo's and Maxie's
When a 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, milkman's on his way
Sleep tight, baby
Sleep tight, let's call it a day
Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway
[ENSEMBLE]
Come on along and listen to
The lullaby of Broadway
The hidee hi and boopa doo
The lullaby of Broadway
The band begins to go to town
And ev'ryone goes crazy
You rock-a-bye your baby 'round
'Til ev'rything gets hazy
Hush-a-bye, "I'll buy you this and that,"
You hear a daddy sayin'
And baby goes home to her flat
To sleep all day:
Good night, baby
Good night, milkman's on his way
Sleep tight, baby
Sleep tight, let's call it a day!
Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway
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 daffy-dills who entertain
Until the dawn:
Good night, baby
Good night, milkman's on his way
[TUMUTLUOUS ENSEMBLE]
[PEGGY, Spoken]
I'll do it!
[ENSEMBLE CHEERING]
[ENSEMBLE]
Come on along-
Come on along and listen to
The lullaby of Broadway
The hidee hi and whoop-di-doo
The lullaby of Broadway
The band begins to go to town
And ev'ryone goes crazy
You rock-a-bye your baby 'round
And sleep all day!
[JULIAN]
Listen to the lullaby of
[JULIAN & ENSEMBLE]
Old Broadway!
