LRC Lyrics download
[00:00.000] 作词 : Harry Warren
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Johnny Maestro
[00:08.111]Due to landscape gardeners' gifted
[00:10.185]father knickerbocker spaces are being lifted so much
[00:13.825]That you hardly know it as such
[00:16.144]All the streets are being dressed up
[00:18.144]So before they ruin Broadway,I suggest that you go
[00:22.037]To the city fathers and say, "Whoa!"
[00:24.270]Glorify sixth avenue
[00:26.165]And put bathrooms in the zoo
[00:27.923]But please don't monkey with Broadway
[00:31.961]Put big flood lights in the park
[00:34.269]And put Harlem in the dark
[00:36.038]But please don't monkey with Broadway
[00:39.574]Though it's tawdry and plain
[00:41.478]It's a lovely old lane
[00:43.508]Full of landmarks galore and memories gay
[00:47.727]So move Grant's tomb to Union Square
[00:50.016]And put Brooklyn anywhere
[00:51.826]But please, please, I beg on my knees
[00:53.719]Don't monkey with old Broadway
[00:56.931]Plant trees in the polo grounds
[00:58.941]And put Yorkville out of bounds
[01:00.881]But please don't monkey with Broadway
[01:05.030]Close the village honky tonks
[01:07.111]And suppress cheering in the Bronx
[01:08.741]But please don't monkey with Broadway
[01:12.689]Think what names used to dance
[01:16.623]On this road of romance
[01:21.014]Think what stars used to stroll along it all day
[01:23.195]Make City Hall a skating rink
[01:24.197]And push Wall Street in the drink
[01:26.989]But please, please, I beg on my knees
[01:28.181]Don't monkey with old Broadway

Due to landscape gardeners' gifted
father knickerbocker spaces are being lifted so much
That you hardly know it as such
All the streets are being dressed up
So before they ruin Broadway,I suggest that you go
To the city fathers and say, "Whoa!"
Glorify sixth avenue
And put bathrooms in the zoo
But please don't monkey with Broadway
Put big flood lights in the park
And put Harlem in the dark
But please don't monkey with Broadway
Though it's tawdry and plain
It's a lovely old lane
Full of landmarks galore and memories gay
So move Grant's tomb to Union Square
And put Brooklyn anywhere
But please, please, I beg on my knees
Don't monkey with old Broadway
Plant trees in the polo grounds
And put Yorkville out of bounds
But please don't monkey with Broadway
Close the village honky tonks
And suppress cheering in the Bronx
But please don't monkey with Broadway
Think what names used to dance
On this road of romance
Think what stars used to stroll along it all day
Make City Hall a skating rink
And push Wall Street in the drink
But please, please, I beg on my knees
Don't monkey with old Broadway
