Spanish Harlem Incident

[Verse 1]

Oh, gypsy gal, the hands of Harlem

Cannot hold you to its heat

Your temperature is too hot for taming

Your flaming feet are burning up the street

I'm homeless, come and take me

Into the reach of your rattlin' drums

Oh, let me know, babe, all about my fortune

Down along my restless palms

[Verse 2]

Oh, gypsy gal, you got me swallowed

I have fallen far beneath

Your pearly eyes, so fast and slashing

And your flashing diamond teeth

The night is pitch black, come an’ make my

Pale face fit into place, ah, please!

Let me know, babe, I’m nearly drowning

If it’s you my lifelines trace

[Verse 3]

I been wondering all about me

Ever since I seen you there

On the cliffs of your wildcat charms I’m riding

I know I’m around you but I don’t know where

You have slayed me, you have made me

I got to laugh half ways off my heels

I got to know, babe, oh oh will you surround me?

So I can tell if I’m really real

I got to know, babe, oh oh will you surround me?

So I can tell if I’m really real
