Harlem Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You smell like a flower
That hasn't been invented
You gave me a camera
So I could take your picture

I met the girl of my dreams
Down in new orleans
You smell like a flower
That hasn't been invented
You gave me a camera
So I could take your picture

I met the girl of my dreams




She's down in new orleans
