I like New York in June, how about you?
I like a Gershwin tune, how about you?
I love a fireside when a storm is due,
I love potato chips, moonlight, motor trips, how about you?
I’m mad about good books, can’t get my fill
And Jimmy Durante’s looks give me a thrill
Holding hands in the movie show
When all the lights are low
May not be new
But I like it, how about you?
I like New York in June, how about you?
I like a Gershwin tune, how about you?
I love a fireside when a storm is due, how about you?
I’m mad about good books, can’t get my fill
And Franklin Roosevelt’s looks give me a thrill
Holding hands in the movie show
When all the lights are low
May not be new
But I like it, I like it, I like it, how about you?
