Lyrics

Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul not Constantinople
Been a long time gone Constantinople
Now a Turkish delight
On a moonlit night

Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul not Constantinople
So if you have a date in Constantinople
She'll be waiting in Istanbul

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why'd they change it I can't say
People just liked it better that way

So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks

Do do do, do do d'dododo...

Istanbul! Istanbul!

Do do do, do do d'dododo...

Do do d'do do do do

So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks

Istanbul!
