Song Of A Long Hot Summer

Now that summer is over...long live summer.
https://youtu.be/CwBZYQ_USYg?si=NvMmc54GXRRg8q0J
The morning air rises off the street
You know it’s gona get much hotter
For a long while
Everybody’s wearing summer smiles woh woh woh
Song on the beach takes me back
Harmonies drifting through the heat
I scream in the hot sand
burning my feet hey pass me a cold drink
They’re singing bout me and you
They’ll be playing it a whole lot longer
In this kind of weather
A song of a long hot summer
Shuffle down the crowded streets of this beach town
A long stare at the ocean’s horizon
Stop at the hot dog stand
Some fries to go and hold the sand
One more thing to make the day’s complete
Now that the sun won’t last much longer
There’s a bar called the beachcomber
up on the cliff
Let’s wash the salt water off of our lips
They’re singing bout the sun’s return
We’ll be humming it a whole lot longer
in this kind of weather
A song of a long hot summer
They’re singing bout brown eyed girls
They’re singing bout love in the sun
They’re singing bout too much fun
In this kind of weather
A song of a long long hot summer

You certainly caught the feel of Summer. All surfboards and sunroofs.
Well played in all aspects,
Liked it very much,
well done!

I too felt summer but then again, it's always summer down here.
Loved the line Everybody's wearing summer smiles. That hooked me in and it just got more 'humid'as it went along.
Also Let's wash the salt water off our lips was another solid hook for me.
Great writing and as always I look forward to more and more.0 -
Great intro! Love that.
Another strong groove and I like the melody too.
That chord change @ "A song of a long hot summer" works a treat.
This one gives me a Springsteen vibe.
Very nice!
