Lullaby Of Birdland Lyrics - The Real... Eartha Kitt - Eartha Kitt

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, the milkman's on his way 

Sleep tight, baby 

Sleep tight, let's call it a day, hey! 

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, the milkman's on his way 

Sleep tight, baby 

Sleep tight, let's call it a day 

Listen to the lullaby of old Broadway
