Drinking (The Boys of Summer)by Tom Parker |
|
Takes a night of drinking in this old town, To escape those troubles that get us down. With the boys of summer, the girls of spring, Be they red, green, yellow, or brown. Though it might seem crazy, don't ask me why, That we lift our glasses up to the sky. To the boys of summer, the girls of spring, We will drink our fill, you and I. Drink, drink, the boys are calling.Takes a night of listening, so tell me how, You'll solve all the world's problems, today - right now! For the boys of summer, the girls of spring, It was easy, let's take a bow. So let's hoist our glasses and make some sound, As we shout, "Hey Barkeep, another round!" For the boys of summer, the girls of spring, And the new friends that we have found. (Let's find 'em!) So now are you with me or are you ain't, You know I'm no devil and I'm no saint. I'm a boy of summer, a girl of spring, How about that, isn't it quaint? So let's have a good time, and if it's right, We can sing this song til the morning light. With the boys of summer, the girls of spring, To be here is such a delight. Drink, drink, the boys are calling.So let's raise our glasses and make a toast, To salute our brothers, from coast to coast. To the girls of summer, the boys of spring, And the one that you love the most. |
