Istanbul was constantinople
Now its istanbul, not constantinople
Been a long time gone, constantinople
Now its turkish delight on a moonlit night

Every gal in constantinople
Lives in istanbul, not constantinople
So if youve a date in constantinople
Shell be waiting in istanbul

Even old new york was once new amsterdam
Why they changed it I cant say
People just liked it better that way

So take me back to constantinople
No, you cant go back to constantinople
Been a long time gone, constantinople
Why did constantinople get the works?
Thats nobodys business but the turks

Istanbul (istanbul)
Istanbul (istanbul)

Even old new york was once new amsterdam
Why they changed it I cant say
People just liked it better that way

Istanbul was constantinople
Now its istanbul, not constantinople
Been a long time gone, constantinople
Why did constantinople get the works?
Thats nobodys business but the turks

So take me back to constantinople
No, you cant go back to constantinople
Been a long time gone, constantinople
Why did constantinople get the works?
Thats nobodys business but the turks

Istanbul
