Underneath the Harlem Moon |
| Creole babies walk along |
| Rhythm in their thighs |
| Rhythm in their hips and in their lips and in their eyes |
| Where do highbrows find |
| The kind of love that satisfies? |
| Underneath the Harlem moon |
| They don’t pick no cotton |
| Picking cotton is taboo |
| They don’t live in cabins |
| Like the old folks used to do |
| Their cabin is a penthouse |
| Up on Lennox Avenue |
| Underneath the Harlem moon |
| They just live for dancing |
| They’re never blue or forlorn |
| Ain’t no sin |
| To laugh or grin |
| That’s why darkies were born |
| They shout «Hallelujah!» |
| every time they’re feeling low |
| And every sheik is dressed up like a Georgia gigolo |
| You may call it madness, but I call it hi-de-ho |
| Underneath the Harlem moon |
