DROP ME OFF IN HARLEM Duke Ellington Ella Fitzgerald (1957) + Lyrics

I wanted my first upload for 2013 to be something relaxed, so I decided it had to be some classic jazz tune. I hope you ll enjoy this musical collaboration of Duke and Ella as much as I do. LYRICS: Drop me off in Harlem Any place in Harlem There s someone waiting there Who makes it seem like Heaven up in Harlem I don t want your Dixie You can keep your Dixie There s no one down in Dixie Who can take me way from my hot Harlem Harlem has those southern skies They re in my baby s smile I idolize my baby s eyes And classy uptown style If Harlem moved to China I know of nothing finer Than to stow away on a plane some day And have them drop me off in Harlem Harlem has those southern skies They re in my baby s smile I idolize my baby s eyes And classy uptown style If Harlem moved to China I know of nothing finer Than to stow away on a plane some day And have them drop me off in Harlem If Harlem moved to China I know nothing finer than to be in Harlem
