On the Town the Musical - Gabey's Comin' Lyrics

OZZIE & CHIP:
Gabey's comin',
Gabey's comin' to town!
He's on the town.
With a day to burn,
You're gonna turn
New York City upside down!

OZZIE, CHIP, GABEY:
Gabey's comin' to town!

OZZIE:
Here's the way you do it!
Hello, baby, gosh, you're pretty,
I'm so tall and strong and witty;
God's great gift to New York City.
How's about a date tonight?

CHIP:
When a guy is feeling tender
He don't want no solo bender,
What he craves is sweet surrender.
How's about a date tonight?

GIRLS:
Date tonight! Date tonight! Love it!
Gabey's comin'.
Gabey's comin' to town!
He's on the town.
Gonna brush my teeth
Down underneath,
Slip into my shearest gown;
Gabey's comin' to town!

OZZIE:
Hello, babe, you look delicious;
You're the answer to my wishes.
Let's start buying breakfast dishes.
How's about a date tonight?

CHIP:
Aren't we having lovely weather?
We're two birdies of a feather;
We could make such tunes together!
How's about a date tonight?

GIRLS:
Date tonight? Date tonight? Love it!
Gabey's comin',
Gabey's comin' to town!
He's on the town!
Gonna take a dive
In Chanel Five,
For that lover of renown!
Gabey's comin' to town!

GABEY, CHIP, AND OZZIE:
For that lover of renown!
Gabey's comin' to town!

Hunting for Miss Turnstiles,
Chip meets an aggressive cab driver,
Brunhilde Esterhazy, Hildy, for short.
(The show is filled with choice names;
Chip, we learn here, is one John Offenblock.)
She has been fired for sleeping on the job yet again,
and is determined to make her last fare a hot one.
Chip, a born tourist who has brought along a guidebook
(unfortunately, way out of date),
decides to fit in some sightseeing before helping Gabey.
But Hildy has other plans.
