Everytime I Go To Harlem by Emily Duff Lyrics

A TRAIN A TRAIN GOIN’ UPTOWN
TAKE ME WHERE THE MUSIC PLAY
BACK TO GRANDMA BERTIE AND THE BABY JESUS
PRAYIN’ TILL THE SKY’S ABLAZE
THESE DAYS I DONT RECOGNIZE
STREETS DONT TALK TO ME ANYMORE
CHANGE AINT ALWAYS FOR THE BEST
FEELS LIKE SOMEBODY SLAMMED THE DOOR
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
I WANNA LIGHT A MATCH
BURN THIS NIGHTMARE DOWN

MISTER LANDLORD SAYS HE HAS THE RIGHT
TO DO WHATEVER THE HELL HE LIKE
JACKED UP THE PRICE AND DROVE GOOD FOLK OUT
SENT THEM RUNNIN’ LIKE THIEVES IN THE NIGHT
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
I WANNA LIGHT A MATCH
BURN THIS NIGHTMARE DOWN
IT’S GOT SO BRIGHT YOU CAN BLIND YOURSELF
ON 125TH AND LEX
BROOKLYN’S DEAD
QUEENS’ LOST HER HEAD
AND THE BRONX IS GOING NEXT
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
I WANNA LIGHT A MATCH
BURN THIS NIGHTMARE DOWN

GENTRIFIED JUST MEANS SOMETHING DIED
LORD KNOWS IT FEEL SO COLD
YOU CAN PAINT IT CLEAN AND REBUILD THE SCENE
BUT THE TOWN AINT GOT NO SOUL
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
EVERYTIME I GO TO HARLEM
I WANNA LIGHT A MATCH
BURN THIS NIGHTMARE DOWN
