Lyrics Summertime - Carlon Jeffery

Summertime

Summer-summer-summertime
Time to sit back and unwind
Here it is, the groove’s slightly transformed
Just a bit of a fray from the norm
Just a little somethin' to break the monotony of all that hardcore and dance
That has gotten to be a little bit out of control
It’s cool to dance, but what about the groove that smooths that new romance?
Give me a soft subtle mix
And if it ain’t broken then don’t try to fix it
And think of the summers of the past
Adjust the bass and let the alpine blast
Pop in my CD, and let me run a rhyme
And put your car on cruise and lay back, cause it’s summertime
Summer-summer-summertime
(Ooh, summertime)
Time to sit back and unwind
Summer-summer-summertime
(We got the summertime)
Time to sit back and unwind
Summer-summer-summertime
Time to sit back and unwind
(Time to sit back and unwind)
School is out and it’s sort of buzz
But back then I didn’t know what it was
But now I see what I happens
The way that people respond to summer madness
Riding around in your jeep, or your Benzos
Or in your Nissan, sitting on Lorenzo’s
Back in Philly, we be out in the park
A place called the «Plateau» is where everybody goes
Guys out hunting, and girls doing likewise
Honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes
And with a pen and pad I compose this rhyme
To hit and get equipped for the summertime
Summer-summer-summertime
Time to sit back and unwind
Summer-summer-summertime
Time to sit back and unwind
(Time to sit back and unwind)
It’s late in the day, and I ain’t been on the court yet
Hustle to the mall to get me a short set
Yeah, I got sneaks, but I need a now pair
Cause basketball court in the summer got girls there
The temperature’s about 88
Hop in the water plug just for old time snake
Break to ya crib change your clothes once more
Cause your invited to a barbecue that’s starting at 4
Sitting with your friends, cause y’all reminisce
About the days growing up and the first person you kissed
And as I think back makes me wonder how the smell from a grill could spark up a
nostalgia
All the kids playing out front
Little boys messin' 'round with the girls playing double dutch
While the DJ’s spinning a tune
As the old folks dance at your family reunion
Then six o’clock rolls around
You just finish wiping your car down
It’s time to cruise so your head to the summertime hangout
It looks like a car show
Everybody come lookin' real fine
Fresh from the barber shop or the fly from the beauty salon
Every moment frontin' and maxin'
Chillin' in the car they spend all day waxin'
Leanin' to the side but you can’t speed through
Two miles an hour so everybody can see you
There’s an air of love and of happiness
And this is the Fresh Prince’s new denfintion of summer madness
Summer-summer-summertime
(Ooh, summertime)
Time to sit back and unwind
Summer-summer-summertime
(We got the summertime)
Time to sit back and unwind
Summer-summer-summertime
(We got the summertime)
Time to sit back and unwind
(Time to sit back and unwind)
