Summer in the City - Lovin' Spoonful video free download

A 1966 hit single by Lovin' Spoonful. Written by John Sebastian, Mark Sebastian and Steve Boone.

I've had many queries about this video... it's a clip from the Harold Lloyd 1928 silent film 'Speedy' starring Harold Lloyd, Ann Christy, Bert Woodruff and baseball star Babe Ruth.

Hot town, summer in the city

Back of my neck getting dirt and gritty

Been down, isn't it a pity

Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

All around, people looking half dead

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night it's a different world

Go out and find a girl

Come-on come-on and dance all night

Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

the days can't be like the nights

In the summer, in the city

In the summer, in the city

Cool town, evening in the city

Dressing so fine and looking so pretty

Cool cat, looking for a kitty

Gonna look in every corner of the city

Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop

Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop

But at night it's a different world

Go out and find a girl

Come-on come-on and dance all night

Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

the days can't be like the nights

In the summer, in the city

In the summer, in the city

Hot town, summer in the city

Back of my neck getting dirt and gritty

Been down, isn't it a pity

Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

All around, people looking half dead

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night it's a different world

Go out and find a girl

Come-on come-on and dance all night

Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

the days can't be like the nights

In the summer, in the city

In the summer, in the city
