Written by：Carl Spencer/Jimmy Radcliffe

A dog barking at the crack of dawn
破晓时分犬吠声声
A baby's crying 'cause his mama's gone
婴孩啼哭因母亲离家
I toss and turn and then I stretch and yawn
辗转反侧伸着懒腰起身
Another morning another day
又是新的一天来临
In the heart of Harlem
在哈莱姆的街心
I feel the tenement coming alive
廉租公寓渐次苏醒
Another working day I've gotta survive
为生存又得开始拼命
Fighting the foreman from 8: 30 till 5
从八点半到五点 与工头周旋
To make a dollar so I can live
只为挣口饭吃 勉强维生
In the heart of Harlem
在哈莱姆的街心
I pitch and kick and
我拼命挣扎
Get my feelings hurt downtown
却在市中心屡屡受伤
I'm just a little spoke
我不过是小小齿轮
That helps the wheel go round
推动着巨轮缓缓前行
If I was rich maybe I'd move away
若我富有或许能远走高飞
Out to the country where my kids could play
搬到郊野让孩子自在嬉戏
But I can't make it on my poor man's pay
但微薄薪水撑不起这美梦
We gotta stay here can't get away
我们只能困守在此无处可逃
Get away from Harlem
永远逃不出哈莱姆的牢笼
If I was rich maybe I'd move away
若我富有或许能远走高飞
Out to the country where my kids could play
搬到郊野让孩子自在嬉戏
But I can't make it on my poor man's pay
但微薄薪水撑不起这美梦
We gotta stay here can't get away
我们只能困守在此无处可逃
Get away from Harlem
永远逃不出哈莱姆的牢笼
Deep deep in the heart of Harlem
深深扎根在哈莱姆的心脏
So deep so deep
如此之深 如此之深
