Hot town, summer in the city Back of my necks gettin' 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 sidewalks, hotter than a match head Walk around it's different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on and dance all night Get off your shoes it'll be all right 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, evening in the city Dressing so fine and looking so pretty Cool cat, looking for a kitty Gonna look in every corner of the city Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftops Walk around it's different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on and dance all night Get off your shoes it'll be all right 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 Summer in the city Summer in the city
