Here's the rain It's konokin' at my door Hand-in-hand She comes with the tax man Always chasing me For just one more thing On my chest like The weight of the world I need a getaway But not tomorrow I've got to find a better day A little place where the sun is shining The grass is green And the people are smiling Jump into the car with me Drive on down to summertime Jump into the car with me Drive on down to summertime Summertime The bed shakers as the Bus passes on the street The window rattles It stops me from getting to sleep Foreing walls are closing in on me Invading my space like a bad dream Things are not what they seem And i know you feel it, too All of you Jump into the car with me Drive on down to summertime Jump into the car with me Drive on down to summertime Summertime Things are much nicer Down there Though they're really Not much better Well, people don't seem To mind so much When the days are longer And the nights are hotter You can sit in a park or a field All day long Feel the sun shining on your face And forget everything that's wrong Jump into the car with me Drive on down to summertime Jump into the car with me Drive on down to summertime Summertime
