Mitchell Joni Taming The Tiger HARLEM IN HAVANA At the far end of the midway by the double ferris wheel There's a band that plays so snakey You can't help how you feel Emmie Mae ran away With a man as dark as night You can see him, if you go there Second trumpet to the right They play "Night Train" So snakey Black girls dancing Long and lanky Barkers barking Step right up, folks! The show is about to begin It's Harlem in Havana time Step right in! Silver spangles See 'em dangle in the farm boy's eyes Hootchie kootchie Auntie Ruthie would've cried If she knew we were on the inside. When Emmie Mae ran away She came back a bottle blonde God! The gossips had a gourmet feast Chomping on how she was born But miracle of miracles Cuz we were underage She got us nearly front row seats To the right side of the stage See that tall girl? That's a man That one, too Big yellow feather fan Barkers barking Step right up, folks! The show is about to begin It's Harlem in Havana time Step right in! Silver spangles See 'em dangle in the farm boy's eyes Hootchie kootchie Auntie Ruthie would've died If she knew we were on the inside. |
