歌曲 | Nights In Harlem |
歌手 | Luther Vandross |
专辑 | I Know |
作词 : Rideout, Thornton, Vandross | |
In the big apple, scars embedded like tattoos | |
Ghetto love, protection from what's coming at you | |
Keeping our heads up, maintaining self esteem | |
And reminiscing on the | |
Harlem Nights scene | |
We used to party all night | |
We used to hang out all night like it was all right | |
Hoping we all might make it through | |
Doin' what it takes to do to keep it true | |
I like to reminisce about that night we kissed | |
It was somewhere in | |
HarlemThe nights were hot and bright, you could treat your honey right' | |
Coz Sylvia's would burn all night, yeah | |
Remember the times we struggled and still held on | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemRemember the times when we would dance all night long | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemBig sister had a group and they'd sit out on the stoop | |
And Lordy could they harmonize | |
My cousin | |
Joe could blow just like the radio | |
And he used to drove them ' | |
B' girls wild | |
Remember the times we struggled and still held on | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemRemember the times when we would dance all night long | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemRemember the times we struggled and still held on | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemRemember the times when we would dance all night long | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemHey yeah | |
Oh yeahHey, yo, the blocks are hot, uptown, you know the spots | |
Night life where this playa's game is quite tight | |
One two five where my name's inscribed | |
Sparkin' trees, avoiding felonies, keepin' it love | |
Headed for them riches, straight to stardom | |
Can't forget the struggle, all | |
Brooklyn to | |
HarlemDapper | |
Dan's, shows at the | |
ApolloHarlem days, summertime is my rhyme ya follow | |
And through the pain, we held on | |
With more to obtain, more to gain | |
Ya can't dwell on bad vibes and sad lives we encountered | |
Take care of self and family, that's what it amounts to | |
Inhale so you could feel this realness | |
In New York sound, down with more cats than | |
FelixSteal this? | |
Yeah, some they may wanna | |
You can't duplicate the great, | |
I make it warmer | |
Just like the | |
Harlem world streets we all knew | |
We coming up this time, we all flow, we all glow | |
Each one's gotta shing, a better life | |
That's what each one's gotta find | |
Remember the times we struggled and still held on | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemRemember the times when we would dance all night long | |
Remember the nights in | |
HarlemRemember the times we struggled and still held on | |
