Humphrey Lyttelton - 1959

Take the 'a' Train

You must take the "A" train
To go to Sugar Hill way up in Harlem
If you miss the "A" train
You'll find you've missed the quickest way to Harlem

Hurry, get on,now It's coming
Listen to those rails a-drumming
All aboard
Get on the "A" train
Soon you will be on Sugar Hill in Harlem

You really must hurry if
You wanna catch the train that will take you in to Harlem

Oh,God,you gonna have a swinging time
All you really need is just go down
