lyrics

THAT’S NO JOKE (Joe Bailey)

NOW, WHEN YOU’RE OUT, OUT ON THE TOWN, RUNNING AROUND
YOU’LL SEE A MILLION THINGS
YOU’VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE

JUST, GRAB A TRAIN, ANY OLD TRAIN, UNDER THE GROUND
YOU’RE IN MY HOME TOWN..
AND NOW YOU KNOW THE SCORE---

WHEN YOU SEE
BROADWAY, ON SUNDAY—
YOUR HEART WILL JUMP FOR JOY-
AND CONEY—IS A PLAY TOY-
FOR EVERY GIRL AND BOY…

NOW, TELL THE WORLD- WHERE YOU HAVE BEEN
AND WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN,
YOU KNOW JUST WHAT I MEAN…
WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO SAY?

I’VE SEEN HOLLYWOOD - CHICAGO TOO,
PITTSBURGH WITH ALL HER SMOKE—
AND BROTHER I’ll TAKE NEW YORK……AND THAT’S NO-- JOKE (SOLOS)

(VOCAL TOP VERSE)
(TAG):
I’VE SEEN HOLLYWOOD -----CHICAGO TOO-
PITTSBURGH WITH ALL HER SMOKE….

AND BROTHER I’LL TAKE NY---(fill)
BROTHER I’LL TAKE NY---- (fill)
BROTHER………….. I’LL TAKE NY …….. AND THAT’S NO JOKE
