Oh, what a beautiful morning
Oh, what a beautiful day
I got a beautiful feeling
Every thing's going my way

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'?
In the smell of summer twilight
There's always somebody barbecuin'

Truth or dare with the kids on our road
Hide and seek till your mama called you home

Sweet summer, yeah, I remember that
Sweet summer, let me take you back

Both our mom's were best friends
She was the youngest of three daughters
An angel on a pink Schwinn, my first crush
To this day I've ain't forgotten her

Those days were never too long and never too hot
Even though I was out of school I was learnin' a lot

Sweet summer, yeah, I remember that
Sweet summer, let me take you back

There's not a day that I don't remember
From the end of May to the first of September

Sweet summer, yeah, I remember that
Sweet summer, let me take you back
Let me take you back

Oh, sweet summer, yeah, I remember that
Sweet summer, let me take you back

Sweet summer
Sweet summer, let me take you back
