Back in the country, living on the Double E In the sunshine of her life There's already a young fellow but Mom and Daddy won't let her leave Mom and Poppa won't let her go
But when they go out dancin' She breaks out on her own She's hot enough to burn the house down But Mom and Poppa don't know
When Edith and Earl renamed the Double E They nearly made history The locals rose up, some of them were mad as hell Cause it used to be the Double L
Change comes slow in the country When you're new there's a lot of distrust Years fly by uneventful Memories turn to dust
Meanwhile Granny has got her bright colors on And the sun's shinin' in her eyes Cruisin' by the bars and honky-tonks where she met Grandpa And caught that young man's eye
Dusty white El Dorado Cruisin' through the trees Slippin' through the shadows Of what used to be
Back in the days, living in the summer of love Living in the summer of love Grandma's okay, not the same since Grandpa's gone She's living in the summer of love
Back in the days, living in the summer of love Living in the summer of love Living in the summer of love Living in the summer of love
Back in the days, living in the summer of love Living in the summer of love
