Paroles
Uptown Harlem Brown
Give me your blues
That's what I'm talking about
Fell in love with the Harlem blues
Even though he was a Moulin Rouge
Hazel eyes seems to be unfair
Cajun moon makes me stop and stare
Gotta reach up to touch the ground
Blaze my box, embrace the sounds
Tell me, boy, where do you dance?
Should I run or take the chance?
You're so pretty, baby, and I know just what to do
Harlem blues, Harlem blues
Harlem blues
Play me a Harlem blues
Lost my mind on a Harlem brown
Savoir faire, he was a man about town
Finest wine when he puts on the ritz
Sets the mood, indigo with his lips
I've been down that road before
What I say and furthermore
I had myself a Romeo
And I dropped it on him nice and slow
Met him down on Bourbon Street
I guess you know the rest
Harlem blues, Harlem blues
Harlem blues
Play me a Harlem blues
The way you move give me a Harlem blues
The way you light my fuse, what a girl's supposed to do
Ooh, got me all over you
Baby, it's tried and true
Give me a Harlem blues
Guess who I saw today?
Casanova Brown
Gave me a blues in my left thigh, get on down
Get so weak when he kiss you
I'm undone, I got issues
Oh, and yes, did I mention?
If he played, he'd be Benson
He's so fine, he's so mellow
In his eyes, greens and yellows
And when he starts in to love me
Rainy days keep me sunny
You're so pretty, baby, and I know just what to do
Harlem blues
Play me a blues
Harlem blues, Harlem blues
Do you understand my blues?
Harlem blues
Harlem blues
Walk that Harlem blues
Harlem blues
I don't need nobody, need to hear me a Harlem
Harlem blues
