Girls in Their Summer Clothes

Well the street lights shine Down on Blessing Avenue
Lovers, they walk by Holding hands two by two
A breeze crosses the porch Bicycle spokes spin 'round
Jacket's on, I'm out the door
Tonight I'm going to burn this town down
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
Kid's rubber ball smacks Off the gutter 'neath the lamp light
Big bank clock chimes Off go the sleepy front porch lights
Downtown the store's alive As the evening's underway
Things been a little tight
But I know they're going to turn my way
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
Frankie's Diner's Over on the edge of town
Neon sign spinning round
Like a cross over the lost and found
Fluorescent lights Flicker above Bob's Grill
Shaniqua brings a coffee and asks, "Fill?"
And says "Penny for your thoughts now, my poor Bill"
She went away She cut me like a knife
Had a beautiful thing Maybe you just saved my life
In just a glance
Down here on Magic Street
Love's a fool's dance
I haven't got much sense, but I still got my feet
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
And the girls in their summer clothes
In the cool of the evening light
The girls in their summer clothes
Pass me by
