|
Summer night in Harlem, |
|
Man it's really hot! |
|
Well it's too hot to sleep |
|
And too hot to eat. |
|
I don't care if I die or not! |
|
|
|
Winter night in Harlem, |
|
Oh oh radiator won't get hot, |
|
And that mean ole landlord |
|
He don't care if I freeze to death or not! |
|
|
|
Saturday night in Harlem, |
|
Ahh every thing's alright. |
|
You can really swing and shake your pretty thing, |
|
The parties are out of sight. |
|
|
|
Sunday morning here in Harlem |
|
Now every body's all dressed up. |
|
The heathen folk just getting home from the party |
|
And the good folk just got up. |
|
Our crooked delegation |
|
Wants a donation |
|
To send the preacher to the holy land |
|
Hey hey lord honey don't give your money |
|
To that lying, cheating man.. |
