John Mellencamp

Summer Of Love

Exotic cars scream down the sunset of dreams

On a hot sunny afternoon

I'm in a hot dog stand

With a strange love holding my hand

And we're both playin' it real cool

It's the summer of love

It's the summer of love, Baby

It's the summer of love

Leastways, I'm hopin' it is

So we talk about her favorite movie star or something

She says, "Ya know, I've never done this before" (Yeah, sure)

"I know it sounds strange, but I can't remember your name

But I remember last night on the floor"

And we both laughed like she told a joke or something

She takes her neckerchief off and wraps it around my head

And says, "Hey, you"

It's the summer of love

It's the summer of love, Baby

It's the summer of love

Leastways, I'm hopin' it is

It's the summer of love

It's the summer of love, Baby

It's the summer of love

Leastways, I'm hopin' it is

So we both walk along alone

She says, "Hey, Mister, you sure make a strange kind of lover"

And I say "yeah"

I say "yeah"

It's the summer of love

It's the summer of love, Baby

It's the summer of love

Leastways, I'm hopin' it is

Leastways, I'm thinkin' it just might be
