Lyrics:

Down in the street
There's a gunshot warnin'
Here comes that blue parade
Ready to save the day
Down in the street
Man, the whole block's burnin'
How's that for rent control?
High rise and gang patrol;
Oh, it's just another sign
That summer's comin'
City wars and flash floods and tornadoes
Festivals for rock and roll Jesus (Jesus)
Beach talks, baseball and handy household hymns;
Summertime
Yes it's true in the U.S. of A
There's lots of room at the top
Oh but you can't sit down
On, no you can't sit down
And don't you know that boudoir?
Looks just a ball and chain
Oh, no you can't sit down
All through the night
You hear gunshot warning
This time it wasn't you
Paid your dues;

All through the night
You hear the city moaning
But be a tomcat prowling
Or maybe, your stomach growling;
It's just another sign
That summer's comin'
City wars and flash floods and tornadoes
Festivals for rock and roll Jesus (Jesus)
Beach talks, baseball and handy household hymns
Summertime
(Fade)
