Drop Me off in Harlem
[Verse 1]
Drop me off in Harlem
Yea, good ol' Harlem
You have your fun under the Harlem sun
So drop me off in Harlem
[Verse 2]
There's Duke Ellington up in Harlem
He writes all his tunes in Harlem
And old Satchmo's still swingin'
Way up in Harlem
[Bridge]
All the cats are still up there
They're beatin' out those riffs
And Apollo of Puerto Rico
Will give you a great big lift, yes
[Verse 3]
Drop me off in Harlem
Yeah man, beautiful Harlem
You'll get red beans and rice, it's very nice
Way up there in Harlem, daddy
Drop me off in Harlem
Yea, good ol' Harlem
You have your fun under the Harlem sun
So drop me off in Harlem
[Verse 2]
There's Duke Ellington up in Harlem
He writes all his tunes in Harlem
And old Satchmo's still swingin'
Way up in Harlem
[Bridge]
All the cats are still up there
They're beatin' out those riffs
And Apollo of Puerto Rico
Will give you a great big lift, yes
[Verse 3]
Drop me off in Harlem
Yeah man, beautiful Harlem
You'll get red beans and rice, it's very nice
Way up there in Harlem, daddy
