He had a freezer full of bomb pops

Push ups, drum sticks and dreamcicles

And a paint chipped change box

Full of sticky quarters, dimes and nickles

It was automatic when we heard that song

Run home and get your money before he's gone



Lookin' underneath the Chrysler in the driveway

Hey, dad what ya doin'

The smell of summer twilight

There's always somebody barbeque'n

Truth or dare with the kdis on our road

Hide and seek till your mama called you home



Chorus



Sweet summer, yeah I remember that

Sweet summer, let me take you back



Her mom and mine were best friends

And she was the youngest of three daughters

An angel on a pink Schwinn, my first crush

Those days were never too long

And never too hot

Even though I was out of school

I was learnin' a lot



Chorus



Bridge



There's not a day that I don't remember

From the end of May to the first of September



Chorus
