In the heart of little old New York You'll find a throughfare Its the part of little old New York That runs into times square A crazy quilt that Wall Street Jack built If you've got a little time to spare I'd like to take you there Come and meet Those dancing feet On the avenue I'm taking you too Forty second street Hear the beat of dancing feet Its the song I love the melody of Forty second street Little nifites from the fifties Innocent and sweet Sexy ladies from the eighties Who are indiscret Oh they're side by side They're glorified Where the underworld can meet the elite Forty second street
