Lovin' Spoonful, The - Summer In The City Lyrics
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
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 all right
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
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
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 all right
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
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
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 all right
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

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
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
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
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
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
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

Go out and find a girl, in the summer, in the city... Brilliant advice to all men and women then and now, in the summer, in the city.
I was born in 1998, but I love this song. I associate it with the Summer of Love, was there a link between this song and the Summer of Love?
The Lovin Spoonful were formed in NYC, the summer of love was really a West Coast thing.
This was actually a year earlier. 1966.
The Summer of Love was in 1967
It must have influenced a great many people who later went on to star heavily in the following 18 months. The 1967 vibe is certainly there. The summer of love was a global phenomena. This West Coast idea is just smoke and mirrors.
Vaisin it was a great time to be a kid. Soundtrack to my childhood.
Summer in the city, did you ever have to makeup your mind, daydream, three of my most favorite songs of all time..
Before such untalented groups like nirvana and acdc
They have talent, you and I just don't like their music
Well Jack .love AC/DC..untalented ..couldnt be further from the truth..guess you just dont like rocknroll.lol🎼🎵😁
Untalented? That's an odd choice of words, you don't have to like them but those are all talented musicians. They just have different talents than The Lovin' Spoonful.
Back when you actually heard and saw talent.
God I hate people like you I’m not crazy about todays music if you don’t like it don’t listen to it I see the same opinion on just about every song that I listen to on you tube I’m honestly I’m sick of it
@Richard Reno theres great music out there, i don´t understand it either
This is actually one of favorite Lovin' Spoonful.
