The Lovin' Spoonful - Summer In The City Lyrics

Lyrics Summer In The City - The Lovin' Spoonful



Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirt' and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half-dead
Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and 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
Cool town, evenin' in the city
Dress so fine and lookin' so pretty
Cool cat lookin' for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
'Til I'm wheezin' like a bus stop
Runnin' up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
But at night, it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and 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, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirt', and, and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people lookin' half-dead
Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
But at night, it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and 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
Summer in the city
