Lyrics

I found out on my way to Harlem Ellington you don't live 'round here He moved away one day so they say From Harlem I can hear his echos still Now now now you can't keep me away from where I was born I was baptized by my daddy's horn Now now now you can't keep my away from where I was born I was baptized by the jazz man's horn I found out on my way to Harlem Langston Hughes he don't live 'round here He moved away one day from his way here in Harlem I know that Marvin Gaye use to play right in here Some body say you can't keep me away from where I was born I was baptized by my daddy's horn No you cant keep me away from where I was born I was baptized to the sound of horns. I found out on my way to Harlem Ellington you don't live 'round here He moved away one day so they say Away from Harlem I can hear his echos clear OH now you can't keep me away from where i was born I was baptized by my daddy's horn Now now now now you can't keep me away from where I was born I was baptized by the sound of horns Oh I found out on my way to Harlem Marvin Gaye used to play whats going on right over there I so could use some of those blues from Langston Hughes Hey there goes the A train Hey there goes the A train Through Harlem Hey there goes the A train Hey there goes the A train Hey there goes the A train
