Dog Days of Summer

You're nearly back to school Watching that heat off the concrete rise I'll trade ya hot for cool Get your last licks while the town just dies Don't ya wake me, up-and-comers From my backyard garden slumber When them dog days of summer come around Don't want your lemonade Life gave me lemons, I made some art Just hanging in the shade You can fire-walk on the pavement, bless your heart I'm soaking in this world of wonder From the parasol I'm under When them dog days of summer come around And round and round again All good things must meet their end Around and round and round again Seasons change, so long fair-weather friend So don't ya wake me, up-and-comers From my backyard garden slumber When them dog days of summer come around And round and round again When them dog days of summer come around
