Song title: Girls in their summer clothes
Girls in their summer clothes
Well, the streetlights shine down on Blessing Avenue
Lovers they walk by, holding hands two by two
A breeze crosses the porch, bicycle spokes spin 'round
My jackets on, I'm out the door
And tonight I'm gonna burn this town down
The girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by
A kids rubber ball smacks
Off the gutter 'neath the lamp light
Big bank clock chimes
Off go the sleepy front porch lights
Downtown the stores alight as the evening's underway
Things been a little tight
But I know their gonna turn my way
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by
Frankie's diner, an old friend on the edge of town
The neon sign spinning round
Like a cross over the lost and found
The fluorescent lights flick over Pop's Grill
Shaniqua brings the coffee and asks "Fill?"
and says "Penny for your thoughts now my boy, Bill"
She went away, she cut me like a knife
Hello beautiful thing, maybe you could save my life
In just a glance, down here on magic street
Loves a fool's dance
And I ain't got much sense, but I still got my feet
The girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by
The girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes, pass me by
