Summer in the City

Hot town, summer in the city

Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty

Been down, isn't it a pity?

Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

All around me people looking half-dead

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a matchhead

But at night it's a different world

Go out and find a girl

Come on, come on, we'll dance all night

Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

The days can't be more like the nights

In the summer in the city

In the summer in the city

Cool town, evening in the city

I'm dressed so fine and lookin' so pretty

I'm a cool cat lookin' for a kitty

I better look in every corner of the city

Until I'm wheezing at the bus stop

Runnin' up the stairs, I'm gonna meet you on the rooftop

But at night it's a different world

Go out and find a girl

Come on, come on, we'll dance all night

Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

The days can't be more like the nights

In the summer in the city

In the summer in the city, yeah, oh

Hot town, summer in the city

Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty

Been down, isn't it a pity?

Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

All around me people looking half-dead

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a matchhead

But at night it's a different world

Go out and find a girl

Come on, come on, we'll dance all night

Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

The days can't be like the nights

In the summer in the city

In the summer in the city

Hot town

In the, in the, hot town

Oh, nothing but a hot town

Cool, cool, cool down baby

Hot town

Hot town, yeah

Nothing but a, a cool down in the city

Hot town

Cool down, baby, yeah

Ha, ha, ha, ha, hot town
