Classic Poem

VERSE

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 dream girl 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!
