TAB:  niuguitarman

capo III -- therefore, when you play an Am chord, a Cm chord is sounded.

[verse 1:]
                                                       
  Hot town, summer in the city; back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
                                                      
  Been down, isn't it a pity; doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
              
  All around, people looking half dead
                       
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

[chorus:]
                     
  But at night it's a different world
            
  Go out and find a girl
                      
  Come-on come-on and dance all night
                        
  Despite the heat it'll be alright
                  
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
                  
That the days can't be like the nights
                    
In the summer, in the city
                    
In the summer, in the city

[verse 2:]
Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
