Open Up, Summertime Songtext
von John Simon

Open up summertime
Let me see that old sunshine
He′s an old friend of mine
Only he can make me whole
Warm up the summer soul

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Open up cloudy day
Chase those motherfuckin' clouds away
Chase them far away
And drop me in a sunny spot
I′d rather be hot than not

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

When I was small, it was no fair at all
When a cloudy day took away my play
And the summer sun would finally come peekin' through
And the sky turned blue

And now even though I'm six feet tall
In the summertime I think I have it right after all


Open up summertime
Let me see that old sunshine
He′s an old friend of mine
Only he can make me whole
Warm up the summer soul

Yes, yes, yes, yes

Whoa, oh, whoa

Open up cloudy day
Chase those dark, dark clouds away
Chase them far away
And drop me in a sunny spot
I′d rather be hot than not

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

Birds in trees singin' those melodies
From another place with amazing grace
And your lover too next to you
On a starry night when the moon shines bright

And now even though I′m six feet tall
In the summertime I think I have it right after all
