Summer Days

Summer days, summer nights are gone Summer days and summer nights are gone I know a place where there's still somethin' going on I've got a house on the hill, i got hogs out in the mud I've got a house on the hill, i got hogs all out in the mud I've got a long haired woman, she got royal indian blood Everybody get ready, lift up your glasses and sing Everybody get ready, lift up your glasses and sing Well i'm standin' on the table, i'm proposin' a toast to the king I'm driving in the flats in a cadillac car The girls all say "you're a worn out star" My pockets are loaded, and i'm spending every dime How can you say you love someone else, you know it's me all the time Well the fog's so thick you can't spy the land Well the fog's so thick that you can't even spy the land What good are you anyway if you can't stand up to some old businessman? Weddin' bells are ringin' and the choir is beginning to sing Yes, the weddin' bells are ringin' and the choir's beginning to sing What looks good in the day, at night is another thing She's looking in to my eyes, and she's a-holding my hand She looks in to my eyes, she's holding my hand She say, "you can't repeat the past," I say "you can't? what do you mean you can't? of course you can." Where do you come from, where do you go? Sorry, that is nothing you would need to know Well, my back's been to the wall so long it seems like it's stuck Why don't you break my heart one more time, just for good luck I got eight carburators and boys i'm usin' 'em all Well, i got eight carburators and boys i'm usin' 'em all I'm short on gas, my motor's startin' to stall My dogs are barking, there must be someone around My dogs are barking, there must be someone around I got my hammer ringin' pretty baby, but the nails ain't goin' down If you got something to say, speak or hold your peace Well, if you got something to say, speak now or hold your peace If it's information you want, you can get it from the police Politician's got on his joggin' shoes He must be runnin' for office, got no time to lose Suckin' the blood out of the genius of generosity You been rollin' your eyes, you been teasin' me Standin' by god's river my soul's beginning to shake Standin' by god's river my soul's beginning to shake I'm countin' on you, love, to gimme a break Well, i'm leaving in the morning, as soon as the dark clouds lift Yes, i'm leaving in the morning, just as soon as the dark clouds lift I'm breakin' the roof, set fire to the place as a partin' gift Summer days, summer nights are gone Summer days, summer nights are gone I know a place where there's still something goin' on
