Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

]

Hot town, summer in the city; back of my neck getting dirty 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

Chorus

]

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'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

Verse 2

]

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 I'm wheezing like a bus stop

Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
