Lyrics:
Well the sun is burning down on the pavement
Money in the bank
I ain't gonna save it
Jenny's coming by
Hope she makes it
Jenny's coming by
Sure hope she makes it
It's a summertime thing
Summertime thing
There's a party next door, sounds like it's cooking
I poked my head over the wall
Took a look in
There was a five piece band
They was really rockin'
Looked like some kind of family reunion
Hey
It's a summertime thing
Summertime thing
That summer heat has got me feeling lazy
The air is warm and the sky is hazy
People getting down, getting crazy
People getting down, getting stupid, betting crazy
Hey
It's a summertime thing
Summertime thing
Go ask your dad for the keys to the Honda
Can your sister come along, how could she not wanna
Put the Beach Boys on, wanna hear Help Me Rhonda
Roll down the sides we'll drive to the delta
Take off our clothes and jump into the river
Ain't nobody around
Ain't nobody gonna see us
Take off your clothes jump into the river
Hey
It's a summertime thing
Summertime thing

Best version of this song I have found on internet to date. Outstanding guitar work.

[@ronnyparker]

I play this on my 6-string when I want to relax, love it. That slide is so emotional

[@ronnyparker]

One of my favorites, has it been that long...? Love the tinkling piano, slide and glide, the gentle hearted bass, that guitar solo is sooooo sweet.
