irving berlin - harlem on my mind lyrics

Loading...

em’ralds in my bracelets and diamonds in my rings
a riviera chateau and a lot of other things
and i’m blue, so blue am i
lots of ready money in seven diff’rent banks
i counted up this morning, it’s about a million francs
and i’m blue, so blue, and i know why

i’ve got harlem on my mind
i’ve a longing to be lowdown
and my “parlez+vous” will not ring true
with harlem on my mind

i’ve been wined and i’ve been dined
but i’m heading for a showdown
’cause i can’t go on from night to dawn
with harlem on my mind

i go to supper with a french marquis
each evening after the show
my lips begin to whisper “mon cheri”
but my heart keeps singing “hi+de+ho”

i’ve becomе too darn refined
and at night i hate to go down
to thе high+falutin’ flat that lady mendel designed
with harlem on my mind
em’ralds in my bracelets, diamonds in my rings
a riviera chateau and a lot of other things
and i’m blue, so blue am i
lots of ready money in seven diff’rent banks

i counted up this morning, it was ’bout a million francs
and i’m blue, so blue, and i know why

i’ve got harlem on my mind
and i’m longin’ to be lowdown
and my “parlez+vous” will not ring true
with harlem on my mind

i’ve been dined and i’ve been wined
but i’m headin’ for a showdown
’cause i can’t go on from night to dawn
with harlem on my mind

i go to supper with a french marquis
each evening after the show
my lips begin to whisper “mon cheri”
but my heart keeps singin’ “hi+de+ho”

i’ve become too d+mned refined
and at night i hate to go down
to that high+falutin’ flat that lady mendel designed
with harlem on my mind
i’ve got harlem on my mind
and i’m longing to be lowdown
and my “parlez+vous” will not ring true
with harlem on my mind

i’ve been dined and i’ve been wined
but sure as your born i’m headin’ for a showdown
’cause i can’t go on from night to dawn
with harlem on my mind

and when i’m bathing in my marble tub
each evening after the show
i get to thinkin’ ’bout that cotton club
and my heart starts chirping “hi+de+ho”

help me!
i’ve been too d+mned refined
and at night i hate to go down
to that flat with fifty million frenchmen taggin’ behind
with harlem on my mind
