You take your boy to Harlem - you're bound to find a hole

Up on Sugar Hill - where everyone's having  a solid ball

     You'll board that "A" Train,
 
and then you ri-i-ide 'til you dig this number:

145 Street where all the Cats meet - posing on  stroll.

Pops, they're really in there. Ba an do da n da n do day
 
 

  That's the riff that the bands all play

   It's Groovy the hepats say;

then you'll know that you're in Harlem

You got to get on that

"A" Train, and you will get a thrill
yeah,If you're lookin' for a rhythm,

you will find it on Sugar Hill.
 

Now that you know just how to get up there

Dig up a nickel and you got your fare
 


You take the "A" Train that goes uptown

And ride,  ride, ride

Wait until you get on Sugar Hill

You'll jump for joy 'til you get your fill

Have you got your nickel in your hand

You must take the "A" Train

To go to Sugar Hill way up in Harlem

Better hurry - get aboard     that    train
