Take The 'A' Train [German translation]
Take The 'A' Train [German translation]
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 missed the quickest way to Harlem
Hurry - get on now it's coming
Listen - to these rails a-humming -
All board get on the "A"-Train
Soon You will be on sugar hill in Harlem
You take your baby to Harlem
You're bound to find a hole
Up on Sugar Hill
Where everyone's having a solid ball
You board that "A" train and then
You ride till you dig this number
One forty five street where all the cats meet
Posing on stroll, bopsters really in there
Bararurap baradurure
That's the riff that the bands all play
It's groovy the hepcats say
Then you know that you're in Harlem
You got to get off that "A" train
And you will have a thrill, yeah
If you're looking for rhythm
You'll find it on Sugar Hill
Now that you know just how to get up
Just dig up a nickel and you've got your fare
If you want to go to happy Harlem
You take the "A" train that goes uptown and ride ride ride
Wait until you get on Sugar Hill
You jump for joy till you get your fill
Have you got your nickel in your hand?
Then hurry don't you miss that train, oh man
You must take the "A" train
To go to Sugar Hill way up in Harlem
Better hurry get aboard the train
