Summer in the City
Wax and EOM Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

While I love my girl on fire, I know she treats me like I do
When I get my car on the road, I take my baby too
we're gonna drive, drive to the sun and where the sky is blue
'cause when I love her like she wants my baby treats me like I do


Long nights of a summer city,
Stars are riding on you,
I'll show you my girl, yes, she's pretty
You know I'm gonna do.

Long nights of a summer city
we are coming through.
Girl, put your spell on me, I wanna feel it
And I know you're gonna do e e e eee


while I set my girl on fire, she can drain it all from me
when I'm gone, she lets me be alone as long as I need




I'm gonna take her to a town she's never ever seen
'cause when I love her like she wants, I do it naturally.
