sometimes it's too hot
so get some happy feet
keep up the fighting
fight to stop the fight

mama Lou Parkes got Harlem dancing
all day and all night
then they're too tired to start a fight
and everything's alright

sometimes it's too hot, we've all got problems
so get some happy feet
together we can

mama Lou Parkes got Harlem dancing
all day and all night
then they're too tired to start a fight
and everything's alright

everybody knows it's dog eat dog
in this world of hate
all she does is try
fight to stop the fight everybody
together we'll keep up the fight

all mama does
is make everybody try
Harlem got souls dancing
why not do it here

mama Lou Parkes got Harlem dancing
all day and all night
then they're too tired to start a fight
and everything's alright

Harlem got souls dancing
why not do it here
mama get the whole world dancing
please
explosions and tensions
peoples pretentions

fight to stop the fight everybody
together we'll keep up the fight
fight to stop the fight everybody
together we'll keep up the fight
fight to stop the fight everybody
together we'll keep up the fight
fight to stop the fight everybody
together we'll keep up the fight

mama Lou Parkes got Harlem dancing
all day and all night
then they're too tired to start a fight
and everything's alright
