That’s No Joke

Philip Bailey

[Verse 1]
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
Yes you're in my old town
And now you know the score

[Bridge]
When you see Broadway on Sunday
Your heart will jump for joy
And Coney is a play toy for every girl and boy

[Verse 2]
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 and Chicago too
Pittsburgh and all her smoke
And, buddy, I'll take New York and that's no joke

[Break]
You'll see a million things
You've never seen before
Yes you'rе in my old town
And now you know the score

[Bridge]
When you see Broadway on Sunday
Your hеart will jump for joy
And, buddy, it's a playground for every girl and boy

[Verse 3]
Just 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 and Chicago too
Pittsburgh and all her smoke
And, buddy, I'll take New York and that's no joke
