Lyrics
From the island of Manhattan
To the Coast of Gold
From north to south, from east to west
You are the love, I love the best
You`re the dreamboat
Of the sweetest story ever told
A dream I’ve sought, both night and day
For years through all the U.S.A.
The star I’ve hitched my wagon to
Is very obviously you
Refrain
Of thee I sing, baby
Summer, autumn, winter, spring, baby
You’re my silver lining
You’re my sky of blue
There’s a love light shining
Just because of you
Of thee I sing, baby
You have got that certain thing, baby
Shining star and inspiration
Worthy of a mighty nation
Of thee I sing
Performance
