Summertime it must be nice to be so beautiful
Libations plenty leave us all a little vulnerable
Sparkling light from here eyes are shining all around the room
They're reelin' in those whose hearts she'll break pretty soon

To hold her in the summertime would lift me into ecstasy
To hold her in the summertime I don't care if it's just one time
To hold her in the summertime before I finish some more of this wine
To hold her even if she's not mine

Summertime it must be nice to let your fancies rove
You laugh and dance so pretty I hope you deal me a winning hand
If I play my cards well I may not even have show
When you whisper me a cool breeze every one else will fold

To hold her in the summertime would lift me into ecstasy
To hold her in the summertime I don't care if it's just one time
To hold her in the summertime before I finish some more of this wine
To hold her even if she's not mine

Summer dreams are they just fantasy
Or will your smile eclipse this cruel sun
You know my well is dry babe and I sure could use some rain to cool me down cool me
down

Summertime I'm thinkin' bout' how many days are left
Exchanged with plenty I wonderin' if we already met
Anticipation floods my soul but it keeps me cool
Will I have to wait till the leaves change color and the kids are back in school

To hold her in the summertime would lift me into ecstasy
To hold her in the summertime I don't care if it's just one time
To hold her in the summertime before I finish some more of this wine
To hold her even if she's not mine
