Fifth Avenue! Park Avenue!
And Washington Square!
I’ve seen ‘em in bloom!
I’ve smelled their perfume!
But I’d rather plant my feet
(Never know who you’re gonna meet)
On Riverside Drive!
Turn left on Park!
Then cross the park to Central Park West!
Take Greely’s advice!
Go West, my young friend!
To make it precise!
Just west of West End!
Keep goin’ till you
Don’t stop till you plant your feet
(Pull up a bench and have a seat)
On Riverside Drive!
You make your own rules
On Riverside Drive!
You do as you please
On Riverside Drive!
And when it gets dark
On Riverside Drive!
It’s ten to one you won’t play Parchesi!
Those boulevards on postal cards
Could never compare!
I just wanna say
The Champs Elysées
Hoboken in May!
Was never as gay as
Could never beat
Seventy-Second Street!
(Goin’ to Seventy-Second Street)
And Riverside,
(Pull up a bench and have a seat)
On Riverside,
(Never know who you’re gonna meet)
On Riverside, on Riverside Drive!VIEW COMPLETE FEWER LYRICS
