"Take The A Train" lyrics

Woo woo
Dee diddly ya bay biddly ah bab
Dee diddly ya bay biddly ah bab

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-thrumming
On board get on the A train
Soon you will be on Sugar Hill in Harlem

If you want to get to Harlem
You can cross the Brooklyn Bridge
When you take the A train
You rattle on up to one hundred and forty-five Street
You don't have to move your feet
Till you hear the swinging sound of the beat
When you hit up Sugar Hill
And the cats that you'll meet
Wear their hair as neat
As their trouser pleats

Hurry, get on now it's wah wah wah wah wah wah coming
If you listen up real close, you can hear those rails a-thrumming
Grab your baby and get on board the A train
Don't you delay
Doused in hairspray
Get on your way
To find Sugar Hill in Harlem

Ba ba dup bee ba dup bee dup
Ba ba dup bee ba dup bee dup

Dee diddly ya bay biddly ah bab
Dee diddly ya bay biddly ah bab
Dee diddly ya bay biddly ah bab
Dee diddly ya bay biddly ah bab

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 now, we've got to get on board
Bi ba dee dee ya ba di ba dee dee ya
Take a listen, yeah, it's getting close
You can hear those rails a-thrumming
Pardon me, boys, is this the way to take the A train?
Don't you delay
Doused in hairspray
Get on your way
To find Sugar Hill
To find Sugar Hill
To find Sugar Hill in Harlem
Woo woooo
