Touch & Go - Tango in Harlem Lyrics

No I just, I just got home, one evening
And um, yeah
I was just walking home and it was really horrible
Snowing, 'cause I lived on Riverside Drive

In Harlem, in Harlem, in Harlem
I had this dream to become a dancer
In Harlem

And um, nobody was there, nobody
You know, why nobody was nowhere?
It was really horrible, snowing
In Harlem, in Harlem

I come to my flat
And I stood in front of the door
And all of a sudden
Somebody points a knife at my throat

And then I was like
I had only fifty dollars to survive
Because I was so poor

In Harlem, in Harlem
I was just actually like thinking about my fifty dollars
All I had to survive
In Harlem
I was like
"F*ck you"

No I just, I just got home
Yeah and I'm just walking home and it was
Snowing
'Cause I lived on Riverside Drive
In Harlem, in Harlem

But it's a great place, New York
I mean they have the best muffins and bagels in the world
