"...I've a cozy little flat in
What is known as old Manhattan,
We'll settle down
Right here in town.
... We'll have Manhattan,
the Bronx and Staten Island too ...
The great big city's a wondrous toy
Just made for a girl and boy -
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy."
~ "Manhattan"
~Richard Rodgers & Lorenz Hart, 1925
~ A popular song and part of the
Great American Songbook, often known as
"We'll Have Manhattan"
An artistic view of beautiful tulips in full
bloom in Lower Manhattan on a gorgeous April day in New York City, settled down in town to turn Manhattan into an isle of joy.
