There's a party in harlem- come on I like to reminisce about that night we kissed It was somewhere one night in harlem The nights were hot and bright 'Cause sylvia's would burn all night The people there were really something (you know that's right) The music always kept us jumpin' And it used to knock me down when Smokey came to town (and the Miracles, please) My favorite song was "Tears of the Clown" oh yeah There ain't nothing like them nights in Harlem They really shake the funk up there Tonight I'm gonna stomp in Harlem And I'm gonna take my baby back to the heart of Harlem Big sister had a group and they'd sit out on the stoop And lordy could they harmanize (oh yeah) My cousin Joe could blow, just like the radio And he used to drive them b girls wild But when grandma started happy dancin' (ooh she gon' break somthin') She really turned the mother out I like the way they do it up in Harlem When there's a party up in Harlem That's what it's all about Ain't nothin like them nights in Harlem They never fake the funk up there I met my Cherie Amour in Harlem And tonight I'm gonna take her, back to the 'pollo[Apollo] There's a party in harlem They say all the stars will be there Harlem is a party and everybody's going there (Rap by Precise)
