| Well, listen everybody to what I’m goin' to say
|
| I don’t think that I can beat this heat another day
|
| I went down to the river — about ninety-eight degrees
|
| I spent all day and half the night in water to my knees
|
| Oh those scorchin' days of summer are here
|
| When sun shines more likely than not
|
| Gonna lay here in the shade, gonna drink me another ice-cold beer
|
| Because ooh boys, it’s hot
|
| Oh, Jerry
|
| (MANDOLIN SOLO)
|
| Well I cut off all my Levis, I had to make some shorts
|
| Left me with a bunch of legs of odd and varied sorts
|
| I’m standin' by my garden I wish like hell it 'd rain
|
| I know that all the seeds I planted gotta feel the same
|
| Oh those scorchin' days of summer are here
|
| When sun shines more likely than not
|
| Gonna lay here in the shade, gonna drink me another ice-cold beer
|
| Because ooh boys, it’s hot
|
| (PIANO SOLO)
|
| Well, listen everybody to what I’ve gotta say
|
| I don’t think that I can beat this heat for another day
|
| I’ve got dogs and cats and chickens all sleepin' in the shade
|
| A dreamin' how those huskies in Alaska got it made
|
| Oh those scorchin' days of summer are here
|
| When sun shines more likely than not
|
| Gonna lay here in the shade, gonna drink me another ice-cold beer
|
| Because ooh boys, it’s hot
|
| Ahhh, one more
|
| (GUITAR SOLO)
|
| Oh those scorchin' days of summer are here
|
| When sun shines more likely than not
|
| Gonna lay here in the shade, gonna drink me another ice-cold beer
|
| Because ooh boys
|
| I said ooh boys
|
| I said ooh boys
|
| It’s hot
