Hot town: summer in the city
Back of my neck's getting dirt and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people are looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

On the 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 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: meeting in the city
Dressed so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat looking for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
'till I'm wheezing at the bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the roof top

On the 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 will be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
The days can't be like the night
In the summer in the city
In the summer in the city

Hot town: summer in the city
Back of my neck's getting dirt and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people are looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

On the 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 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
