Dear Marcel
I hope this letter finds you well
And the folks at home aren't dropping dead of some new plague
Yes, it's true! I've traveled off to NYC, America
We've known for far too long we couldn't stay forever
But now that I am here
It's clear to me why people come
To this place of brick and stone on the river
But if you find you're needing work
When Nottingham forgets you
If you go to sea
To sail and come my way
Then I'll see you in Harlem
On 116th Street
Near the Randolph Square
Drop a line or grab a train
And I'll see you in Harlem
You can stay at my new place
See the sights, get a job
And it'll be okay
And I'll see you in Harlem
Found a job putting meat into a can
It's not much, but hey! the pay is twice what I had made
Got some friends from down the street
And at the local Mason's lodge
See them at the bar, the beer is never-ending
There is a spark of hope
An air of better things to come
For us workers living for every moment
Should you find this sounding like a call from fate or heaven
You should go to sea
To sail and come my way
And I'll see you in Harlem
On 116th Street
Near the Randolph Square
Drop a line or grab a train
And I'll see you in Harlem
You can stay at my new place
See the sights, get a job
And it'll be okay
And I'll see you in Harlem
But don't think that this is pure Nirvana!
I'll admit my life is nothing like the life the barons have
But I'm free to fail or grow in any way
And may God give me the strength to grow, the strength to grow!
There is a spark of hope
An air of better things to come
For us workers living for every moment
Should you find this sounding like a call from fate or heaven
You should go to sea
To sail and come my way
I'll see you in Harlem
On 116th Street
Near the Randolph Square
Drop a line or grab a train
And I'll see you in Harlem
You can stay at my new place
See the sights, get a job
And it'll be okay
And I'll see you in Harlem
On 116th Street
Near the Randolph Square
Drop a line or grab a train
And I'll see you in Harlem
You can stay at my new place
See the sights, get a job
And it'll be okay
And I'll see you in Harlem
On 116th Street
Near the Randolph Square
Drop a line or grab a train...
