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?
