Lyrics

Hot town, summer in the city,

back o' neck getting (Csus2)dirty and (G)gritty.

(Cm)Been down, isn't it a pity.

Doesn't seem to be a (Csus2)shadow in the (G)city.

All around, (G7)people lookin' half dead,

(C)walkin' on the sidewalk na hotter than a match,

yeah. (F)But at night it's a (Bb)diff'rent world,

(F)go out and (Bb)find a girl.

(F)Come on, come on and dance all night,

despite the heat it'll (Bb)be alright.

And, (Dm)babe, don't you (G)know it's a pity the (Dm)days can't (G)be like the nights,

in the (Dm)summer in the (G)city,

in the (Dm)summer in the (G)city.

(Cm)Cool town, evenin' in the city,

dressed so fine and (Csus2)alookin' so (G)(Cm)pretty.

Cool cat, lookin' for a kitty.

Gonna look in ev'ry (Csus2)corner of the (G)city.

Till a I'm (G7)wheezin' like a bus stop,

(C)runnin' up the stairs, gon na meet you on the rooftop.

(F)But at night it's a (Bb)diff'rent world,

(F)go out and (Bb)find a girl.

(F)Come on, come on and dance all night,

despite the heat it'll (Bb)be alright.

And, (Dm)babe, don't you (G)know it's a pity the (Dm)days can't (G)be like the nights,

in the (Dm)summer in the (G)city,

in the (Dm)summer in the (G)city.

(Dm)summer in the (G)city.
