about

Hendrix meets Mark Ronson. Summer jam to warm your soul.

lyrics

Hot damn winter's finally over
It's getting longer every year
The sun is high and the temperature's rising
It's a party everywhere

City of pretty women
Under a sky so blue
Must be a crime to be feeling this fine
Baby tell me, how are you?

Oh, it's too hot to think now
Somebody get me a drink
Oh, that'll do fine
It's summertime

Summer in the city
Getting high, getting dizzy
Summer in the city
Getting mean, it ain't pretty

High time that we got together
I'll take the train downtown
Crowded as hell, it's got me feeling unwell
Gotta get myself above ground

I feel the sun getting stronger
Sweat pouring out of my skin
Would it be alright if I stayed through the night?
You know I had a little tonic and gin

Oh, it's too hot to think now
Somebody get me a drink
Oh, that'll do fine
It's summertime

Summer in the city
Getting high, getting dizzy
Summer in the city
Getting mean, it ain't pretty
