Lyrics:

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isnt it a pity
Doesnt 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 its a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat itll be alright

And babe, dont you know its a pity
That the days cant be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

Cool town, evening in the city
Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till Im wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop

But at night its a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat itll be alright

And babe, dont you know its a pity
That the days cant be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city

------ instrumental break ------

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isnt it a pity
Doesnt 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 its a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat itll be alright

And babe, dont you know its a pity
That the days cant be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city
