There's a day we feel gay
if the weather's fine.
Ev'ry lad feels so glad
if the sun does shine.
In his best he is dressed
and with smiling face
he goes with the Pearlie
his own little girlie
to some nice place.

On a Sunday afternoon
in the merry month of June
take a trip up the Hudson
or down the bay,
take a trolley to Coney
or Rockaway.
On a Sunday afternoon
you can see the lovers spoon,
they work hard on Monday.
But one day that's fun day
is Sunday afternoon.

On a Sunday afternoon
in the merry month of June
take a trip up the Hudson
or down the bay,
take a trolley to Coney
or Rockaway.
On a Sunday afternoon
you can see the lovers spoon,
they work hard on Monday.
But one day that's fun day
is Sunday afternoon.

Coming home starry dome
with a soft moon shine.
Lovers kiss, oh, what bliss!
Oh what joy divine!
"Goodnight Joe."
"Goodnight Flo,
don't forget now, dear,
next Sunday at two
I'll be waiting for you
on the old Iron Pier."

On a Sunday afternoon
in the merry month of June
take a trip up the Hudson
or down the bay,
take a trolley to Coney
or Rockaway.
On a Sunday afternoon
you can see the lovers spoon,
they work hard on Monday.
But one day that's fun day
is Sunday afternoon.

On a Sunday afternoon
in the merry month of June
take a trip up the Hudson
or down the bay,
take a trolley to Coney
or Rockaway.
On a Sunday afternoon
you can see the lovers spoon,
they work hard on Monday.
But one day that's fun day
is Sunday afternoon.
