Just the other day
Yes, I flew in from the West Coast
And we circled J.F.K
The movie ended and I pulled up the shade
Looked out the window while the Muzak played
But in my head I'm singin'
Singin' the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yeah
When you're growin' up in Brooklyn
The Bridge is like a friend
Said when you're growin' up in Brooklyn
That Bridge is sure your friend
Because that river, looks a hundred miles wide
When all your dreams are on the other side
And th at can start you singin'
Singin' the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yeah
Now I've got myself some money
A mansion in Bel-aire
Yes I've spent a lot of money
And I've been most everywhere
But still there's somethin'
Missin' I've got to find
A part of me I must've left behind
That makes a guy start feelin'
Feelin' those Brooklyn Blues. My my
I've sung love songs to a princess
More than once or twice
I"ve sung rock 'n' roll in Paris
Jazz in paradise
But there's a song of mine I couldn't have sung
A tune I started back when I was young
Now I've come home to finish
Finish my Brooklyn Blues
My Brooklyn Blues
See I flew in from the West Coast Just the other day Yes, I flew in from the West Coast And we circled J.F.K The movie ended and I pulled up the shade Looked out the window while the Muzak played But in my head I'm singin' Singin' the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yeah When you're growin' up in Brooklyn The Bridge is like a friend Said when you're growin' up in Brooklyn That Bridge is sure your friend Because that river, looks a hundred miles wide When all your dreams are on the other side And th at can start you singin' Singin' the Brooklyn Blues. Oh, yeah Now I've got myself some money A mansion in Bel-aire Yes I've spent a lot of money And I've been most everywhere But still there's somethin' Missin' I've got to find A part of me I must've left behind That makes a guy start feelin' Feelin' those Brooklyn Blues. My my I've sung love songs to a princess More than once or twice I"ve sung rock 'n' roll in Paris Jazz in paradise But there's a song of mine I couldn't have sung A tune I started back when I was young Now I've come home to finish Finish my Brooklyn Blues My Brooklyn Blues Explain Request ×
