Long Hot Summer Night
Jimi Hendrix Lyrics
Show us a long
Long, long hot summer night
As far as my eyes could see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, my heart was way down
Cold, cold winter stone
Well my darlin', where can you be?
Where can you be, baby?
Where can you be?
And two candy cane windows
But the silliest move melted all those inside
Well, everybody's on fire, but it's
A-snowin' in a cold blizzard
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
God, God, God
Around about this time the telephone
Blew its horn across the room
Scared little Annie
Clean out of her mind
Out of her mind
Roman the Candle he peeps out of his peekaboo hide and seek
And grabbed little Annie from the ceiling just in time
And the telephone keeps on screamin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
"Hello", said my shakey voice, "well, how you doin'?"
I start to stutter
"ah, can't cha tell I'm a-doin' fine?"
There was my baby talkin', she's way down 'cross the border
She says, "I'm gonna hurry to ya I've been a fool
And I'm tired of cryin'"
Said I'm tired of cryin'
Yeah a long, long, long hot summer night
As far as my eyes could see
But I can ah feel the heat comin' on as my baby's gettin' closer
I'm so glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
So glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
So glad my baby's comin' to rescue me
Rescue, rescue, rescue
Rescue, rescue
Rescue, rescue, what'd I say
Rescue me, rescue me
Rescue, rescue me, rescue me
Rescue

James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix (born Johnny Allen Hendrix; November 27, 1942 – September 18, 1970) was an American rock guitarist, singer, and songwriter. Although his mainstream career spanned only four years, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential electric guitarists in the history of popular music, and one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame describes him as "arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music". Read Full BioJames Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix (born Johnny Allen Hendrix; November 27, 1942 – September 18, 1970) was an American rock guitarist, singer, and songwriter. Although his mainstream career spanned only four years, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential electric guitarists in the history of popular music, and one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame describes him as "arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music".
Born in Seattle, Washington, Hendrix began playing guitar at the age of 15. In 1961, he enlisted in the U.S. Army and trained as a paratrooper in the 101st Airborne Division; he was granted an honorable discharge the following year. Soon afterward, he moved to Clarksville, Tennessee, and began playing gigs on the Chitlin' Circuit, earning a place in the Isley Brothers' backing band and later with Little Richard, with whom he continued to work through mid-1965. He then played with Curtis Knight and the Squires before moving to England in late 1966 after being discovered by Linda Keith, who in turn interested bassist Chas Chandler of the Animals in becoming his first manager. Within months, Hendrix had earned three UK top ten hits with the Jimi Hendrix Experience: "Hey Joe", "Purple Haze", and "The Wind Cries Mary". He achieved fame in the U.S. after his performance at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967, and in 1968 his third and final studio album, Electric Ladyland, reached number one in the U.S.; it was Hendrix's most commercially successful release and his first and only number one album. The world's highest-paid performer, he headlined the Woodstock Festival in 1969 and the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970, before his accidental death from barbiturate-related asphyxia on September 18, 1970, at the age of 27.
Hendrix was inspired musically by American rock and roll and electric blues. He favored overdriven amplifiers with high volume and gain, and was instrumental in utilizing the previously undesirable sounds caused by guitar amplifier feedback. He helped to popularize the use of a wah-wah pedal in mainstream rock, and was the first artist to use stereophonic phasing effects in music recordings. Holly George-Warren of Rolling Stone commented: "Hendrix pioneered the use of the instrument as an electronic sound source. Players before him had experimented with feedback and distortion, but Hendrix turned those effects and others into a controlled, fluid vocabulary every bit as personal as the blues with which he began."
Hendrix was the recipient of several music awards during his lifetime and posthumously. In 1967, readers of Melody Maker voted him the Pop Musician of the Year, and in 1968, Rolling Stone declared him the Performer of the Year. Disc and Music Echo honored him with the World Top Musician of 1969 and in 1970, Guitar Player named him the Rock Guitarist of the Year. The Jimi Hendrix Experience was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005. Rolling Stone ranked the band's three studio albums, Are You Experienced, Axis: Bold as Love, and Electric Ladyland, among the 100 greatest albums of all time, and they ranked Hendrix as the greatest guitarist and the sixth greatest artist of all time.

Long, long hot summer night
As far as my eyes could see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, my heart was way down
Cold, cold winter stone
Well my darlin', where can you be?
Where can you be, baby?
Where can you be?
There were three sugar walls
And two candy cane windows
But the silliest move melted all those inside
Well, everybody's on fire, but it's
A-snowin' in a cold blizzard
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
God, God, God
Around about this time the telephone
Blew its horn across the room
Scared little Annie
Clean out of her mind
Out of her mind
Roman the Candle he peeps out of his peekaboo hide and seek
And grabbed little Annie from the ceiling just in time
And the telephone keeps on screamin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
"Hello", said my shakey voice, "well, how you doin'?"

There was my baby talkin', she's way down 'cross the border
She says, "I'm gonna hurry to ya I've been a fool
And I'm tired of cryin'"
Said I'm tired of cryin'
Yeah a long, long, long hot summer night
As far as my eyes could see
But I can ah feel the heat comin' on as my baby's gettin' closer
I'm so glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
So glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
So glad my baby's comin' to rescue me
Rescue, rescue, rescue
Rescue, rescue
Rescue, rescue, what'd I say
Rescue me, rescue me
Rescue, rescue me, rescue me
