E                                           A       B        E
Sister got bit by a copperhead snake in the woods behind the house
E                                               A           B      E
And nobody was home so I grabbed her foot and I sucked that poison out
A
Sister got better in a month or two when the swelling it went down
    E                                     A      B     E
But I started off my teenage years with a poison in my mouth

Chorus:
            A               E       A             E

Return to our teen in the late seventies in a summer of the drugs


E                                           A        B     E
Mommy and Daddy could never understand that life was never cold
E                                     A       B     E
Their idea of a rollicking town was a kitchen tap appall
A
Acid, grass, downs and speed, junked us days were made of
E                                           A        B         E
How could they suspect those kids where the monsters eat their makers

Chorus:
              A               E       A             E
And they were too young to be hippies missed out on love

We learned from the teens of the late seventies in a
E      B      E
Summer of the drugs

F#                D
Boys and girls in every town
F#                 C#
Sandman spread his sand around
F#              B                D      C# B
Now we are just waking up from a summer of drugs

    A                  E                 A
Hey hey (hey hey), woh woh (woh woh), uh-huh (uh-huh)

Oh yeah yeah yeah

E                                       A           B         E
Mommies and Daddies are too shy to talk about those birds and bees
E                               A        B      E
Integrated schools had stopped, facts of life please
A
Girls and boys went away came back, empty after weekend
    E                                A     B        E
The talk on the phone consisted of a hush, voices speaking

Chorus:
              A               E       A             E
And they were too young to be hippies missed out on love
  A                       E                   E      B      E
Return to our teen in the late seventies in a summer of the drugs

              A          E
And they were too young (too young)
              A         E
And they were too fast (too fast)
A E         E      B  E
    Oh, the summer of drugs
