Drop Me Off In Harlem




Drop Me Off In Harlem
music by Duke Ellington
lyric by Nick Kenny & Charles Kenny

Drop me off in Harlem, any place in Harlem.
There's someone waiting there who makes it seem like heaven up in Harlem.

I don't want your Dixie, you can keep your Dixie,
There's no one down in Dixie who can take me 'way from my hot Harlem.

Harlem has those southern skies;
They're in my baby's smile.
I idolize my baby's eyes and classy up-town style.

If Harlem moved to China, I know of nothing finer,
Than to stow away on a plane some day
And have them drop me off in Harlem.

Harlem has those southern skies;
They're in my baby's smile.
I idolize my baby's eyes and classy up-town style.

If Harlem moved to China, I know of nothing finer,
Than to stow away on a plane some day
And have them drop me off in Harlem...
