Drop Me off in Harlem lyrics
by Duke Ellington
[Verse 1]
Drop me off in Harlem
Yea, good ol' Harlem
You have your fun under the Harlem sun
So drop me off in Harlem
[Verse 2]
There's Duke Ellington up in Harlem
He writes all his tunes in Harlem
And old Satchmo's still swingin'
Way up in Harlem
[Bridge]
All the cats are still up there
They're beatin' out those riffs
And Apollo of Puerto Rico
Will give you a great big lift, yes
[Verse 3]
Drop me off in Harlem
Yeah man, beautiful Harlem
You'll get red beans and rice, it's very nice
Way up there in Harlem, daddy
