Coney Island hasn’t been an island since the creek that separated it from the rest of Brooklyn was filled in more than a century ago. Today, Coney Island is still the closest beach to Manhattan, if you’re traveling on a MetroCard.Landmarked rides like the Cyclone rumble on, and a few funkily indestructible carny attractions survive, along with the boardwalk, the hot dogs, the beach, the sea and sky. Enjoy....
Grettings From Coney Island
Coney Island Baby.....I like It....One of my best places in NYC.Good Day Sunshine
(along the boardwalk)
Baby Let Me Kiss You
Baby, let me do it, let me do it to you Let me kiss you, baby
Baby, can I do it, can I do it to you
Can I kiss you, baby?
Cause baby, youre giving me such a groovy sensation
But dont stop it now, baby--I might lose your vibration Your sweet conversation, it keeps turning me on, yeah
My mind is so weak girl, all my resistance is gone
Now you know you got me in a bad situation
You keep it up, baby, I might lose my reputation
So come on, baby--let me kiss you just-a one time
I think I might kiss you one, two times
Youre looking good now, feeling good
You got me going down, round and round
Up and down, baby, feeling good, now
Come on, baby--Good God...
(Lyrics: King Floyd)
On The Beach.
Everything is possible in Coney Island......
Let's Dance.
I spent few minutes watching this amorphous posse of dancers, most of whom were members of the Coney Island Dancers. After a while, though, I joined in, like many others. And for a couple of hours, this little bit of the boardwalk became a free nightclub, open to anyone.
