Hot town, summer in the city, back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Bent down, isn't it a pity, doesn't seem to be a shadow in [G] the city
All around, [B] people looking half dead, walking on the [C] sidewalk hotter than a match head
[F] But [Bb] tonight it's a different [F] world, go [Bb] out and find a [F] girl
Come on, come [Bb] on and dance all [F] night, despite the [Bb] heat it'll be [Dm] alright
And babe, [G] don't you know it's a pity the days can't be like [Dm] the nights
In the summer, [G] in the city, [Dm] in the summer, [G] in the city
[Cm] Cool town, eating in the city, dressed so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for [Am] a kitty, gonna look in every corner of [G] the city
