Another Summer Songtext
von Roman Candle

I walked down Myrtle Avenue to meet my sister for some company
She said she heard my other half had escaped from penitentiary
I got home about 9:00 a.m. and saw a body had changed the locks
I walked outside and spent three months
Sleeping in a pool down the street four blocks

Maybe there′s nothing left to do
I try to kill myself, I try to sing about you
They say the only way to win a mama's girl
Is with praise, maybe not today

′Cause it's another summer
Not having you here to hold me
Better be another sunset
Not knowing where you're at
And I know better, baby
But say nobody told me
But if you′re lying down next to another
Well, girl, I tip my hat


I walked down to my sister′s house and told her my true love was gone
She said that she was gonna walk up with me
And we'd get a mouthful of alcohol
She left town that afternoon and put her house keys on the shelf
Nobody knows that I′m following her trail
Or pushing her off a cliff myself

Maybe there's nothing left to say
It could have been a little much to treat family that way
They say the only way to win a mama′s girl
Is with style, like a child for a while

'Cause it′s another summer
Not having you here to hold me
Better be another sunset
Not knowing where you're at
And I know better, baby
But say nobody told me
But if you're lying down next to another
Well, girl, I tip my hat

Maybe there′s nothing left to say
It could have been a little much to treat family that way
They say the only way to win a mama′s girl
Is with style, like a child for a while


'Cause it′s another summer
Not having you here to hold me
Better be another sunset
Not knowing where you're at
And I know better, baby
But say nobody told me
But if you′re pouring a drink for another
Well, girl, I tip my hat
