Summer in the City

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty 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
Walking 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 view it'll be alright
And babe don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

Cold town, even in the city
Dressed so fine, and you're looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
Til I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Running 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
Just like the heat it'll be alright
But babe don't you know it's a pity
That 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 getting 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
Walking on the sidewal, 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
Just like the view it'll be alright
But babe don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city
