summertime

so in honor of the fact that it has been raining and gloomy for the past 3 weeks or so i am going to start singing my summertime song. perhaps i can counteract the continual statement from all of the locals if you mention the weather:

"we need the moisture"

my garden disagrees.

we pick peaches and we make a pie
sit and eat it by the fireside
joking talking lauging feeling wild
summertime is like a happy child

playing kickball on the side yard lawn
running 'round with silly costumes on
drinking whiskey while we're shootin' pool
summertime is when we break the rules

dancing underneath the full moon light
nothing better on a friday night
pickin' strummin' with the violin
summertime it lets the music in

jumping off beside the waterfall
sticking toes in cracks to climb the wall
drinking homebrew while we're throwing discs
summertime is when we take the risks

i miss summer when in comes the fall
winter's cold and isn't for us all
spring is beautiful but just too sweet
summertime it really can't be beat
