Summer's Here

Summer's here

I'm for that

Got my rubber sandals

Got my straw hat

Got my cold beer

I'm just glad that I'm here

Summer's here

That suits me fine

It may rain today

But I don't mind

It's my favorite time of the year

And I'm glad that I'm here

Old man wintertime

He goes so slow

It's ten degrees below, you know

You can take your ice and snow

And let my balmy breezes blow

Yeah, the water is cold but I've been in

Baby, lose the laundry and jump on in

I mean all God's children got skin

And it's summer again

Old man wintertime

He goes so slow

It's ten degrees below, you know

You can take your ice and snow

And let my balmy breezes blow

Summer's here

I'm for that

Got my rubber sandals

Got my straw hat

Drinking cold beer

Man I'm just that I'm here

It's my favorite time of the year

And I'm glad that I'm here, yeah
