Nights In Harlemfeat Precise lyrics

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
You could treat your honey right
Cuz Sylvia`s would burn all night

The people there were really something
(You know that`s right)
The music always kept us jumping
And it used to knock me down
When Smokey came to town
(And the miracles, please)
My favorite song was `Tears Of A 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 harmonize (Oh yeah)
My cousin Joe could blow
Just like the radio
And he used to drove them `B` girls wild

But when grandma started happy dancing
(Oh, she gon` break somethin`)
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 nothing 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

There`s a party in Harlem
They say that all the stars will be there
Everyone is going to Harlem
Harlem is a party and everybody`s going there

[Precise]
Follow me visually, cuz I usually be all around
Originallly everybody headed uptown
Finessing the fly way you crisin in your car
On the West Side to the highway, East Side D-R
And yes, we are about to set it
Forget it, I thought you knew
The Apollo is where I had to go with my crew
From BMW`s to my daddy`s Cadillac
He had the sunroof top wit the diamond in the back
Check the ambiance, the place a renaissance
Who frontin` nonchallant up in the restaurant
What you really really want, we grabbin by the clutch
Precise can flaunt with this and never too much
It`s such a love flow, high but natural
The thug`s a no-show, and drugs a no-no
The only thing that they was shootin` was pool
While Harlem nights was right, the party was cool

Nothing like them nights in Harlem
They really shake the funk up there
Tonight I`m gonna stomp in Harlem
I`m gonna take my baby back to the heart of Harlem

Nights in Harlem
They never fake the funk up there
I met my Cherie Amour in Harlem
Back to the Harlem Apollo

Nights in Harlem
They don`t let you fake the funk up there
Tonight I`m gonna stomp in Harlem
I`m gonna take my honey
Back to the Harlem Apollow

Nights in Harlem
They really shake the funk up there
Tonight I`m gonna stomp in Harlem
I`m gonna take my baby
Back to the Harlem Apollo
