[chip]
my father told me, “chip, my boy
there’ll come a time when you leave home
if you should ever hit new york
be sure to see the hippodrome”

[hildy]:
the hippodrome?

[chip]
the hippodrome

[hildy]
did i hear right?
did you say the hippodrome?
[chip]
yes, you heard right
yes, i said the hip—
hey, what did you stop for?

[hildy]
it ain’t there anymore
aida sang an “a”
and blew the place away!

[chip, spoken]
aw, i wanted to see the hippodrome!

[hildy, spoken]
give me a chance, kid. i may not have fivе thousand seats, but the one i havе is a honey! come up to my place!

[chip, spoken]
oh no, lady; the forrest theatre.
(sung)
when i was home i saw the plays
the ladies’ drama circle showed
now i am here, i want to get
some tickets for “tobacco road”

[hildy]
“tobacco road?”
[chip]
“tobacco road”

[hildy]
did i dig that?
“did you say tobacco road?”

[chip]
yes, you dug that
yes, i said “tobac—”
hey, what for did you stop?

[hildy]
that show has closed up shop
the actors washed their feet
and called it “angel street”

[chip, spoken]
aw, i wanted to see “tobacco road.”

[hildy]
stick with me, kid, and i’ll show you the road to ruin. come on up to my place!

[chip, spoken]
oh, no, battery park.
(sung)
back home i dreamt of catching fish
so big i couldn’t carry ’em
they told me that they have my size
right here in the aquarium

[hildy]
aquarium?

[chip]
aquarium

[hildy]
hold the phone, joe
did you say aquarium?

[chip]
i’m still ringing
but i said aquar—
did you stop for what, hey?

[hildy]
the fish have flown away
they’re in the bronx instead
they might as well be dead!
(spoken)
come up to my place.

[chip, spoken]
no, chambers street.
(sung)
they told me i could see new york
in all its spreading strength and power
from the city’s highest spot
atop the famous woolworth tower

[hildy]
the woolworth tower?

[chip]
the woolworth tower

[hildy]
beat me, daddy
did you say the woolworth tower?

[chip]
i won’t beat you
but i said the wool—
did you stop for hey, what?

[hildy]
that ain’t the highest spot
you’re just a little late
we got the empire state!
let’s go to my place!

[chip]
let’s go to cleopatra’s needle

[hildy]
let’s go to my place!

[chip]
let’s see wanamaker’s store

[hildy]
let’s go to my place!

[chip]
let’s go to lindy’s, go to luchow’s

[hildy]

[chip]
let’s see radio city and herald square

[hildy]
let’s go to my place!

[chip]

[hildy]
