Lyrics
I recall all those dog days of summer August wind like hot breath on my neck Id rub my brow with a cool sweet tea glass Watchin kids chase fireflies on the sun-baked grass From the back porch youd hear the 9:15 And watch the trail of her smokestack cloud Nights I dreamt of jumpin that train to see What the world holds outside this one stop light town Chorus: Our younger days seem to fade so fast Maybe what keeps us young is getting lost in the past Like that summer in my neck of the woods Back when all the memries were good Id walk down to the creek through the town square Honeysuckle heavy in the air Id lay back in the tall grass in the sun Watchin clouds roll by and that old river run Saturday nights down at the picture show Neckin in the dark in the last row Later wed head over to the ice cream parlor A sugar cone and two scoops for a dollar Chorus Bridge: Id go swimmin with my girl out by the falls In a field of magnolias where the catbirds call Wed make love where no one could find us Leavin the world we knew far behind us Main Street was lined and dressed for Labor Day Towns old soldiers marched in the parade School kids did Our Town at the church hall That last gasp of summer before leaves start to fall Chorus
