Coleman Cy On The Twentieth Century On The Twentieth Century Music by Cy Coleman Lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green From the 1978 musical "On The Twentieth Century" Transcribed by Randy Goldberg, NYMC '97 Saddle up the horse without delay Ship ahoy, we sail at break of day Ours not to question Ours not to reason Ours to obey! Let down the drawbridge While you keep the motor racing Maybe we'll have to swim the river Working for Jaffee, though continually crazy, Also destroys the heart and liver What's new today We're gonna sneak away To a shower of rotten eggs With our tails between our legs On the Twentieth Century, the Twentieth Century In Drawing Room A! Hey! Hey! Hey! We point with the deepest pride To the grandest ride On the New York Central Railroad The aristocrat of locomotive trains New York in sixteen hours Anything can happen in those sixteen hours On that mighty ride That mighty miracle of engineering trains Ride that mighty miracle of engineering trains On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the luxury liner of locomotive trains On the luxury liner of locomotive trains Our hearts will be motion reels When this prince of wheels Starts to make its daily journey Either Chi-N.Y. Or else N.Y. to Chi New York in sixteen hours Anything can happen in those sixteen hours As the flight all across the night America the beautiful was high America the beautiful was high On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the luxury liner between N.Y. and Chi Life and love and luck May be changed Hope renewed (renewed) And fate rearranged On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the luxury liner between N.Y. and Chi Life and love and luck May be changed Hope renewed And fate rearranged On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the Twentieth Century On the luxury liner between N.Y. and Chi |
