Summertime
Sun-Kissed Reflections: Morgan Brown's Summertime Tale
Lyrics
I got a sunburn tan line on the back of my neck
I have a visible tan line on the back of my neck due to sunburn.
That parking lot asphalt is hot on the bottom of my feet
The asphalt in the parking lot is hot and uncomfortable on the soles of my feet.
I left my flip flops somewhere on flag island
I left my flip flops somewhere on Flag Island.
We been drinking down there since 10 this morning
We have been drinking since 10 in the morning at this location.
Now I'm just trying to get back to my lonely crib
Now I'm attempting to return to my empty home.
But there ain't no one sober within miles of here
There is no sober person nearby for miles.
Cause The green grass only grows this time a year
The lush green grass grows only during this season.
It's summer time, sunshine, and cold beer
It's summer, characterized by sunshine and cold beer.
It wasn't that long ago I said I wouldn't do this again
Not long ago, I declared I wouldn't repeat this behavior.
But if I recall right that was just last weekend
However, it seems my resolve was weak, as it was just last weekend.
And here I am again sitting at the river bend
Yet here I am once more, sitting at the riverbank.
Hoping I can catch a ride so I don't have to swim
Hoping to find transportation and avoid swimming.
That pearl river moonlight is creeping up through the trees
The moonlight from the Pearl River is slowly rising through the trees.
Thinking bout it now I really ain't got no place to be
Upon reflection, I realize I don't have any particular place to be.
Cause the green grass only grows this time of year
Once again, emphasizing that the grass thrives only in this season.
It's summer time sunshine and cold beer
Reiterating the essence of summer: sunshine and cold beer.
Yeah cause the green grass only grows this time of year
Repeats the idea that lush green grass is exclusive to this time of year.
it's summertime sunshine and cold beer
Emphasizing summer as the time for sunshine and cold beer.
Let's hop in the boat and head back to the sand bar
Proposing to get into a boat and return to the sandbar.
I ain't sure if we've got the gas to make it far
Unsure if there is enough gas for a distant journey.
But the radio's blaring and I can't help but grin
The radio is playing loudly, and despite uncertainties, I find myself smiling.
Sleep in a lawn chair wake up and do it all again
Suggesting a routine of relaxing, followed by repeating the same activities.
Cause Green grass only grows this time a year
Highlighting once more the exclusivity of lush green grass in this season.
It's summer time sunshine and cold beer yeah
Reemphasizing the association of summer with sunshine and cold beer.
The green grass only grows this time a year
Restates the idea that green grass is only prevalent in this time of the year.
Its summer time sunshine and cold beer
Reiterating the essence of summer: sunshine and cold beer.
Well the green grass only grows this time a year
Once again, underscoring the exclusivity of lush green grass in this season.
It's summertime sunshine and ice cold beer
Summarizes the essence of summertime as sunshine and ice-cold beer.
