Aretha Franklin - Spanish Harlem lyrics
[Aretha Franklin - Spanish Harlem lyrics]
(La la la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la la)
(There's a rose in black at spanish harlem)
(A rose in black at spanish harlem)
It is the special one it never sees the sun
It only comes up when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
It's growing in the street
Right up through the concrete
But soft sweet and dreamy
(There is a rose in spanish harlem)
(A rose in black at spanish harlem)
With eyes as black as coal
That look down in his soul
It start a fire there and
Then he looses control
I'm gonna beg his par-ar-ar-ardon yeah
He's going to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows in his garden
(There is a rose in spanish harlem uum uum)
(A rose in black at spanish harlem uum uum)
With eyes as black as coal
That look down in his soul
And start a fire there and
Then he loses control
And i wanna beg his par-ar-ar don
He's going to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows in his garden
(La la la- la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la la)
(There's a rose in black at spanish harlem)
(A rose in black at spanish harlem)
It is the special one it never sees the sun
It only comes up when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
It's growing in the street
Right up through the concrete
But soft sweet and dreamy
(There is a rose in spanish harlem)
(A rose in black at spanish harlem)
With eyes as black as coal
That look down in his soul
It start a fire there and
Then he looses control
I'm gonna beg his par-ar-ar-ardon yeah
He's going to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows in his garden
(There is a rose in spanish harlem uum uum)
(A rose in black at spanish harlem uum uum)
With eyes as black as coal
That look down in his soul
And start a fire there and
Then he loses control
And i wanna beg his par-ar-ar don
He's going to pick that rose
And watch her as she grows in his garden
(La la la- la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la)
(La la la la la la la la la)
