(Billy Strayhorn)
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 get right where you goin'
If you hurry


Hurry, hurry, hurry
Night's coming
Can't you hear the rails a-humming


If you should take the A-train
You'll find to get away

... with a hurry

If you should take the A-train

You'll find you get right where you goin'
If you hurry


Hurry, hurry, hurry
Night's coming
Can't you hear the rails a-humming
