[ Featuring Jim Caruso ]
In the heart of little old New York
You'll find a thoroughfare
It's the part of little old New York
That runs into Time Square
That crazy quilt that Wall Street Jack built
If you've got a little time to spare
I want to take you there
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
Uh little nifties from the fifties
Innocent and sweet
Sexy ladies from the eighties
Who are indiscreet
They're side by side, they're glorified
Where the underworld can meet the elite
Forty-second street
Come and meet
(Come and meet)
Those dancing feet
(Those dancing feet)
On the avenue I'm taking you to
Forty-second street
Hear the beat
(Hear the beat)
Of dancing feet
(Those dancing feet)
It's the song I love the melody of
Forty-second street
Uh little nifties from the fifties
Innocent and sweet
Sexy ladies from the eighties
Who are indiscreet
They're side by side, they're glorified
Where the underworld can meet the elite,
Naughty, body, gawdy, sporty Forty-second street"
