Here comes summer
School is out, oh happy day
Here comes summer
I'm gonna grab my girl and run away
Here comes summer
We'll go swimmin' every day
And let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home
Well, school's not so bad but the summer's better
It gives me more time to see my girl
Walks through the park 'neath the shining moon
And when we kiss, she makes a flattop curl
It's summer
I feel her lips so close to mine
Here comes summer
When we meet, our hearts entwine
It's the greatest
Let's have summer all the time
Oh, let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home
(Here comes summer) here comes summer
Almost June, the sun is bright
(Here comes summer) here comes summer
Drive-in movies ev'ry night
(Double features) double features
Lots more time to hold her tight
So let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home
Well, I want to hold my girl beside me
Sit by the lake till one or two
Go for a drive in the summer moon
In our dream of a love the whole night through
It's summer
She'll be with me every day
Here comes summer
Meet the gang at Joe's Café
If she's willing
We'll go steady right away
Oh, let the sun shine bright on my happy summer home
(Oh, let the sun shine bright) well, here comes summertime at last
