Istanbul was
Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul
not Constantinople
Been a long time gone
Old Constantinople's
still has Turkish
delight On a
moonlight night
Evr'y gal in
Constantinople
Is a Miss stanbul
not Constantinople
So if you've date
in Constantinople
Will be waiting
in Istanbul
Even old New York
was once
New Amsterdam
Why they changed it
I can't say
People just liked
it better that way
Take me back
to Constantinople
No you can't go back
to Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul
not Constantinople
Why did Constantinople
get the works
That's nobody's
business but the Turks
