(Song) "Harlem Days"

Post by Hilda Whitter »

(Sing)
Harlem Days
Harlem Days
Can't forget
Those Harlem Days

(Spoken)
Hustlers, Scramblers
Number man
Calling out Yo!
Early in the morning
Got your number
Take your pick
Meet me in the
Hole
Write them down
Real quick

(Sing)
Harlem Days
Harlem Days
Can't forget
Those Harlem Days

(Spoken)
Get off the "D" train
At 145th
Leaving work
Real quick
Walk up to The Dunbar
Where I lived

(Sing)
Harlem Days
Harlem Days
Can't forget
Those Harlem Days

(Spoken)
Jump in an OJ cab
With my friends
Screaming, shouting
Cracking jokes
And calling people
Out the cab windows

(Sing)
Harlem Days
Harlem Days
Can't forget
Those Harlem Days

(Spoken)
Pick one man
To hang on to
Everyone knew
Each other
On 8th Avenue
As we screamed,
Sang, and danced

(Sing)
Harlem Days
Harlem Days
Can't forget
Those Harlem Days
