Summer in the City (Reel to Real: The Archive)

by Graham Bonnet

Lyrics
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck and it don't act pretty
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
Just like we need, it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

Cool town, even 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 rooftop

But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Just like we need, it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck and it don't act pretty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

Cool town, even in the city
Dressed so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city

Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh

Summer in the city
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Summer
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Summer city
