Mel Tormé — 42nd Street lyrics

Lyrics

Come and meet
Those dancing feet
On the avenue I’m taking you to Forty-Second Street
Hear the beat
Of dancing feet
It’s the song I love the melody of Forty-Second Street
Little nifties from the fifties
Innocent and sweet
Sexy ladies from the eighties
Who are indiscreet
Side by side, they’re glorified
Where the underworld
Can meet the elite
Forty-Second Street
Little nifties from the fifties
Innocent, sweet
Sexy ladies from the eighties
Who are indiscreet
Side by side, they’re glorified
Where the underworld
Can meet the elite
Forty-Second Street
Forty-Second Street
Naughty, bawdy
Gaudy, sporty
Forty
Forty-Second Street
