Take the "A" Train

Next stop, Harlem
Listen to those rails a-thrumming all aboard
Get aboard
Hurry, get on board, it's comin'
Soon you will be on Sugar Hill in Harlem
If you miss the "A" train

Next stop is Harlem

Get on the "A" train
Listen to those rails a-thrumming all aboard
Come on, get aboard the "A" train
Get on the "A" train
You must take the "A" train

If you miss the "A" train
Soon you will be on Sugar Hill in Harlem

You'll miss the quickest way to Harlem
To go to Sugar Hill, way up in Harlem

Hurry, get on, now it's coming
You'll find you missed the quickest way to Harlem

Harlem, boy
Next stop is Harlem
You must take the "A" train
To go to Sugar Hill, way up in Harlem
