Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I reached down and grabbed my last can and I thought, Damn
What the hell are we gonna do
Only Friday down, a whole weekend to go
Beer run's comin' man, that's for sure
And then I look at you
And I said Yeah yeah
The sun pouring down just lighting up that tan
I said Yeah yeah
Toes curled right up digging in that sand
Gotta love these summer nights
When the sun goes down and the moon comes out
That's about the time we all gather round and
Watch the fire burn
We'll pass the guitar round play our favorite songs
Kumbaya and then we'll all sing along to
Every word to Mama Tried
And I said Yeah yeah
The moon shining down just lighting up your hair
Nowhere else I'd rather be
I said Yeah yeah
The smell of that driftwood floating through the air
Gotta love these summer nights
When the summer ends and it's time for us to go
Gonna grab this old 6 string, and sing it once more
And I said Yeah yeah
The sun pouring down just lighting up that tan
Shining off your skin
I said Yeah yeah
Your toes curled right up digging in that sand
Gotta love these summer nights
When I said Yeah yeah
Sun pouring down just lighting up that tan
Shining off your skin
I said Yeah yeah
Your toes curled right up digging in that sand
Gotta love these summer nights
Oh Oh Oh Gotta love these summer nights
Oh Oh Oh Gotta love these summer nights
Oh Oh Oh Gotta love these summer nights
Oh Oh Oh You gotta love these summer nights
