DuBose Heyward - There's a Boat Dat's Leavin' Soon for New York lyrics

There's a boat dat's leavin' soon for New York Come wid me Dat's where we belong, sister You an' me kin live dat high life in New York Come wid me Dere you can't go wrong, sister I'll buy you de swellest mansion Up on upper Fi'th Avenue An' through Harlem we'll go struttin' We'll go a-struttin' An' dere'll be nuttin' Too good for you I'll dress you in silks and satins In de latest Paris styles And de blues you'll be forgettin' You'll be forgettin' There'll be no frettin' Jes nothin' but smiles Come along wid me Dat's de place Don't be a fool, come along, come along There's a boat dat's leavin' soon for New York Come wid me Dat's where we belong, sister Dat's where we belong! Come on, Bess!
