Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Summertime, when will you come?
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime, I need a sunny day
[Verse 2]
I want those peaches on the table
I want the watermelon red
And the warm sun creepin' through the window
To ease me out of bed
[Verse 3]
I want the sand out there to lie on
And the sea out there to swim
So my heart can take a holiday
From breakin' over him
[Verse 4]
Summertime, when will you come?
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime, I need a sunny day
[Verse 5]
And I wanna drive forever
Wanna roll the windows down
Get the breeze back on my body
Get my feet back on the ground
[Verse 6]
I want the sand out there to lie on
And the sea out there to swim
So my heart can take a holiday
From breakin' over him
[Verse 7]
Summertime, when will you come?
I wanna put my light things on
I wanna put my winter life away
Summertime, I need a sunny day
[Verse 8]
Da-da, da, da, da
Da, da
Da, da-da, da, da, da
Da, da
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da
[Verse 9]
Da, da-da, da, da, da
Da, da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da, da
Da, da-da, da, da, da
Da, da
