Hills Of Brooklyn
Flow on river, flow with the flood tide
Ebb with the ebb tide, frolic on
Throw out questions, throw out answers
Suspend, here and everywhere
Chorus:
Stand up, beautiful hills of Brooklyn
Sound out, voice of young men
Stand up, beautiful hills of Brooklyn
Loudly call me by my nighest name
Fly on seabirds, fly on sideways
Or wheel in large circles in the air
Come on ships, from the lower bay
Pass up or down white-sailed
(Chorus)
Flaunt way, flags of all nations
Burn your fires all you foundries
Thrive cities thrive, bring your freight
Bring your shows
Expand, expand, expand
