Hurry hurry hurry take the a train
To find the quickest way to get to harlem
If you should take the a train
You'll find you'll get where you're going if you hurry
Hurry hurry hurry now it's coming
Ooh ooh can't you hear the rails a humming
Get with it
If you should take the a train
You'll find you'll get where you're going if you hurry

I ain't mad at you pretty baby
Don't be mad at me

I ain't much to look at, I ain't nothing to see
I got a frame, and I'm waiting for the a train
