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

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

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

In the summer, in the city

In the summer, in the city

(same as verse 1)
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 rooftop

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
Kept walking down the sidewalk, other than a matchhead
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's gonna be alright
And baby, 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
Dressed so fine and lookin' so pretty
Cool cat lookin' for a kitty
Gonna look in ev'ry corner of the city
'Til I'm weezin' at the bus stop
Runnin' up the stairs gonna meet ya 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 will be alright
And baby, 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
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on, let's dance all night
Despite the heat it's gonna be alright
And baby, 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
The summer through the city
Hot talk
Somewhere in the city
A cool girl
Let me know the city now
Let me baby
Hot town, help me
Cool girl, moving off the city you know
I feel it, and it's different from the world
Will you let me find the city girl?
Hot town, danger
Moving along the city you help me
Been looking for a different world
Will you let me know the city girl?
