Summertime In The City The Manhattans

If you ever been or lived in the city
Then you know what I'm gonna talk about
Little bitty babies
Trying to sleep
Well
Mommas tryna keep em
Out of the heat
Rush hour traffic, yes
Blocking up the street, well
Juke box playing
A funky beat

(Have you ever be there)
In city
(Have you ever be there)
In city

Garbage in the streets
But nobody cares
Everybody's rushing, well
But ain't going nowhere
Working like a [?]
Well
Ain't getting no pay
You ain't never, seen the summer
In the city, well well well well
You ain't never, na na na
The summer in the city
If you ain't seen the summer in the city
