Believe (x3) |
|
Harlem Nights (x3) |
|
I'll be there tonight! |
|
Doo doo doo... |
|
Think I was born a little late |
|
From my discriminating taste |
|
I will be happier today |
|
If I have a chance to swing |
|
I wanna land my time machine |
|
Down in the days of [??] |
|
Back when the Cotton Club was king |
|
And they all knew how to swing |
|
Where the boys lit cigarettes with a sneer |
|
And the girls wore jasmine behind their ears |
|
And the noise tasted like smoke and bad gin |
|
Oh I wish I could be drinking it in |
|
And those harlem nights never had to end |
|
So the harlem guys can strut their stuff again |
|
In their two-toned shoes, shade of Langston Hughes |
|
In those harlem nights, I'll be there tonight |
|
Doo doo doo... |
|
I'd add some polish in my hair |
|
A sense of cool and savoir-faire |
|
A dash of danger and a flair |
|
When I get the chance to swing |
|
They had the magic in their feet |
|
A hundred forty-second street |
|
The gals were sugar, she was sweet |
|
Yeah, the cat knew how to swing |
|
Where the boys lit cigarettes with a sneer |
|
And the girls wore jasmine behind their ears |
|
And the noise tasted like smoke and bad gin |
|
Oh I wish I could be drinking it in |
|
And those harlem nights never had to end |
|
So the harlem guys can strut their stuff again |
|
In their two-toned shoes, shade of Langston Hughes |
|
Give me harlem nights, I'll be there tonight |
|
Where the boys lit cigarettes with a sneer |
|
And the girls wore jasmine behind their ears |
|
And the noise tasted like smoke and bad gin |
|
Oh I wish I could be drinking it in, in, in, in! |
|
And those harlem nights never had to end |
|
So the harlem guys can strut their stuff again |
|
In their two-toned shoes, shade of Langston Hughes |
|
Give me harlem nights, I'll be there tonight |
|
Harlem nights, harlem nights... |
|
And those harlem nights never had to end |
|
So the harlem guys can strut their stuff again |
|
In their two-toned shoes, shade of Langston Hughes |
|
Give me harlem nights, I'll be there tonight! |
