I am Jesus Oldman. For whatever reason, I have begun to consider my mortality. Therefore. I am leaving my life's work to SoundClick. All purchases go to Them!
CATS MAKE GREAT PIZZA. See Video. Hi World. I Am JESUS OLDMAN. Now considering my mortality, I am leaving my music, to SoundClick. Entrusting them to keep it alive, even after I am gone. Any money it will make, will go to SoundClick, not to me. Because I did it for Love, I did it for God. And I Trust SoundClick, to Keep This Alive For You All. -JO

Story behind the song
I was around in 1966 when this was a big monster hit... ...it sounded, like nothing else before it... I suspect this was actually The Very First Grunge record. Listen to it! Sounds Grungy doesn't it.
Lyrics
SUMMER IN THE CITY Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity? Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people lookin' half dead Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night, it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on, and dance all night Despite the heat, it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the nights In the summer in the city In the summer in the city Cool town, evening in the city Dressed so fine and lookin' so pretty Cool cat lookin' for a kitty Gonna look in every corner of the city 'Til I'm wheezing like a bus stop Runnin' upstairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop But at night, it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on, and dance all night Despite the heat, it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the nights In the summer in the city In the summer in the city -piano break- Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty Been down, isn't it a pity? Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around, people lookin' half dead Walkin' on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head But at night, it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on, and dance all night Despite the heat, it'll be alright And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the nights In the summer in the city In the summer in the city -piano break- ....intro/outro... Guitar & voices... ..repeat to fade... Copyright 1966 - Sebastian, Sebastian & Boone
