Hot town summer in the city 
Back of my neck getting 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 
Walking on the sidewalk hotter than a match head 

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 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 

Cool town, evening in the city 
Dressed so fine and looking so pritty 
Cool cat lookin for a kitty 
Gonna look in every corner of the city 
Till I'm weezin like a bus stop 
Running up the stairs gonna meet ya on the roof top 

But at night it's a different world 
Go out and find a girl 
Come on, come on lets 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 night 
In the summer in the city 
In the summer in the city 

Solo 

But at night it's a different world 
Go out and find a girl 
Come on, come on lets dance all night 
Despite the heatit 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
