Burl Ives - Brooklyn Bridge Lyrics

Burl Ives Lyrics

"Brooklyn Bridge"

Well I had me a girl with the golden curls she vowed to treat me right
But here I am and I'm all alone on the Brooklyn Bridge tonight
On the Brooklyn Bridge tonight

A thousand thoughts run through my mind as I watch the city lights
My love is gone and I'm all alone on the Brooklyn Bridge tonight
On the Brooklyn Bridge tonight

Well it really has been a blue blue day
And the water is cold in the lower bay
The water is cold in the lower bay

Standing by the long steal rail looking far below
I've heard the voice that seemed to say darling please don't go
Darling please don't go

So I hurried home and waitin' for me standin' by the door
I saw the girl with the golden curls said I'll never leave you no more
I'll never leave no more

Well it must have been my lucky day
Cause the water was cold in the lower bay
The water was cold in the lower bay

Now I got a girl with the golden curls she always treats me right
But here I am and I'm not alone on the Brooklyn Bridge tonight
On the Brooklyn Bridge tonight
