Top of the charts in 1966. #1. C# There is a rose in Spanish Harlem. A red rose up in Spanish Harlem. F# It is a special one..it's never seen the sun. It only comes out when the moon is on the run C# and all the stars are gleaming. G# It's growing in the street right up through the concrete, C# but soft and sweet and dreaming.
#2. C# There is a rose in Spanish Harlem. A red rose up in Spanish Harlem. F# With eyes as black as coal, that look down in my soul and start a fire there and then I lose control, C# I have to beg your pardon. G# I'm gonna pick that rose and watch her as she grows, C# in my garden. (ORCHESTRAL BREAK:) #3. F# It is a special one..it's never seen the sun. It only comes out when the moon is on the run C# and all the stars are gleaming. G# I'm gonna pick that rose and watch her as she grows, C# in my garden. OUTRO: C# There is a rose in Spanish Harlem. A red rose up in Spanish Harlem. C# There is a rose in Spanish Harlem. A red rose up in Spanish Harlem...(Fade.) A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
