Jonathan Richman
That Summer Feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
When there's things to do not because you gotta
When you run for love not because you oughtta
When you trust your friends with no reason not ta
The joy I name shall not be tamed
And that summer feeling is gonna haunt you one day in your life
When the cool of the pond makes you drop down on it
When the smell of the lawn makes you flop down on it
When the teenage car gots the cops down on it
The time is here for one more year
And that summer feeling is gonna haunt you one day in your life
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
If you've forgotten what I'm naming
You're gonna long to claim it one day
Because that summer feeling is gonna haunt you one day in your life
And if you wait until you're older
A sad resentment will smolder one day
And then that summer feeling is gonna haunt you
That summer feeling's gonna taunt you
That summer feeling is gonna hurt you one day in your life
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
When even fourth grade starts looking good which you hated
And first grade's looking good too, overrated
And you boys long for some little girl that you dated
Do you long for her, for the way you were
That summer feeling is gonna haunt you one day in your life
When the Oldsmobile has got the top down on it
When the catamaran has got the drop down on it
Flat of the land has got the crop down on it
Some things were good before, some things just never were
Never were
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Summer feeling
Well when your friends are in town and they've got time for you
When you're never hanging around and they don't ignore you
When you say what you will and they still adore you
Is that not appealing? It's that summer feeling
And the summer feeling is gonna haunt you one day in your life
It's gonna taunt you
It's gonna haunt you
You're gonna want this feeling inside one more time
You're gonna want this feeling inside one more time
You're gonna want this feeling inside
You're gonna want this feeling inside
One more time
One more time
One more time
