The Boy From New York City Lyrics By The Ad Libs

    ooo wah ooo wah cool cool kitty
    tell us about the boy from new york city
    ooo wah ooo wah c’mon kitty
    tell us about the boy from new york city

    he’s kind of tall
    he’s really fine
    some day i hope to make him mine all mine
    and he’s neat
    and oh so sweet
    and just the way he looked at me
    he swept me off my feet
    ooo whee you ought to come and see
    how he walks
    and how he talks

    ooo wah ooo wah cool cool kitty
    tell us about the boy from new york city

    he’s really down
    and he’s no clown
    he has the finest penthouse i’ve ever seen in town
    and he’s cute
    in his mohair suit
    and he keeps his pockets full of spending loot
    ooo whee say you ought to come and see
    his dueling scar
    and brand new car

    every time he says he loves me
    chills run down my spine
    every time he wants to kiss me
    he makes me feel so fine

    ooo wah ooo wah cool cool kitty
    tell us about the boy from new york city

    well he can dance
    and make romance
    that’s when i fell in love
    with just one glance

    he was shy
    and so was i
    and now i know i’ll never ever say goodbye
    ooo whee say you ought to come and see
    he’s the most
    from coast to coast

    ooo wah ooo wah cool cool kitty
    tell us about the boy from new york city
    ooo wah ooo wah c’mon kitty
    tell us about the boy from new york city
