Harlem Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Summer night in Harlem
Man, it's really hot
Well it's too hot to sleep, I'm too poor to eat
I don't care if I die or not

[Verse 2]
Winter night in Harlem
Oh oh, radiator won't get hot
Well the mean old landlord, he don't care
If I freeze to death or not

[Verse 3]
Saturday night in Harlem
Ah, everything's alright
You can really swing, and shake your pretty thing
The party's outta sight

[Verse 4]
Sunday mornin', here in Harlem
Now, everybody's all dressed up
Ah, the hip folks gettin' a home from the party
And the good folks just got up

[Bridge]
Ah, crooked delegation, wants a donation
To send the preacher to the holy land
Hey, hey love, honey, don't give your money
To that lyin', cheatin' man

[Verse 3]
Saturday night in Harlem, hey, hey
Everything's alright
You can really swing, and shake your pretty thing
The party's outta sight

[Verse 4]
Sunday morning, here in Harlem
Now everybody's all dressed up
Ah, the hip folks gettin' a-home from the party
And the good folks just got up

[Bridge]
Ah, crooked delegation wants a donation
To send the preacher to the holy land
Hey, hey love, honey, don't give your money
To that lyin', cheatin' man

[Outro]
Hey, hey
Ha ha, haha
Hey, hey
Yeah, yeah
Ah, ha ha ha, hey
Hey, hey hey hey
Ah ha ha ha haha
Ha ha ha ha ha
Haha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha
Ah ha ha hahaha
Ha ha haha
