Spanish Harlem Lyrics


There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish HarlemIt is a special one, it's never seen the sun
It only comes out when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
It's growing in the street right up through the concrete
But soft and sweet and dreamyThere is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish HarlemWith eyes as black as coal, that look down in my soul
And start a fire there and then I lose control
I have to beg your pardon
I'm gonna pick that rose and watch her as she grows
In my gardenIt is a special one, it's never seen the sun
It only comes out when the moon is on the run
And all the stars are gleaming
I'm gonna pick that rose and watch her as she grows
In my gardenThere is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish HarlemThere is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Mamas & the Papas (credited as The Mama's and the Papa's on the debut album cover) were a leading vocal group of the 60s from New York. The group recorded and performed from 1965 to 1968, releasing five albums and charting ten hit singles that hold up as well today as they did back in the sunshine era. While spending relatively a short time in the realm of popular music, some group members have pointed to their short time in the spotlight as a reason why they still have loyal fans today.
