Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Glory Halle

What's all that noise

Hallelujah

Don't give up with that now

Glory Halle

Who's that over in the corner

Hallelujah

I believe that's Mr Teagarden

Hey what you doing up there man

Last time I saw you

You were saying fare thee

Well to Harlem

I done bin wise go wine

And I ain't go wine there no more

You show come back the right time

It's Christmas up here

What do mean up here

It's Christmas everywhere

Yeah but it ain't all Christmas

Like it's Christmas in Harlem

No

Every gal strutting with her beaut

Through the streets covered

White with snow

Happy smiles ereywhere you go

Christmas night in Harlem

Black and tans feeling mighty good

In that old colored

Neighborhood

Here and now be it understood

Christmas night in Harlem

Everyone is gonna sit up

Until after three

Everyone will be all lit up

Like a Christmas tree

Come on now every coal black Joe

You just lead me the mistletoe

With a kiss and a hide ho

Christmas night in Harlem

He he man dog

What'd Santa Claus leave

In your stocking

Let me see

There's an orange

A jar can get

And man

Look at this slide trombone

And put it

Yeah

But it might not sound so pretty

Let me hear you tune it

Mr Mercer

I'm glad to be back in this festivity

Ah you said it Mr T

It's Christmas night in Harlem

Well it's Christmas

Night in Harlem

Man you drew the pull
