Lullaby Of Broadway - Jimmy Rushing, Buck Clayton And His Orchestra

Come on along and listen to, the lullaby of Broadway

The hip hooray and ballyhoo, the lullaby of Broadway

The rumble of a subway train, the rattle of the taxis

The daffydils who entertain, at Angelo’s and Maxi’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.

Hey!

Come on along and listen to, the lullaby of Broadway

The hi-dee-hi and boop-a-doo, the lullaby of Broadway

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

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
