I Come From Brooklyn

Marry Me navy was always contrary
She’d never 1) go out on a date 2) give out with a date
But at a swell party she meet a rich smarty who asked her if she’d TeTe Tete
She said now look here this to you may sound queer 1) for your smooth talk I’m not very keen
2) we are strangers so let’s keep it klean
When he told her she bored him she 1) should have ignored him
But instead she said

And Brooklyn is out of this world
I Come From Brooklyn

And that’s a swell place to come from
