Summertime - Single Edit

[00:00.09] Drums please
[00:01.93]
[00:15.37] Summer, summer, summertime (summertime)
[00:20.35] Time to sit back and unwind (sit back and unwind)
[00:23.41] Summertime
[00:24.63] Here it is the groove slightly transformed
[00:27.54] Just a bit of a break from the norm
[00:29.76] Just a little somethin' to break the monotony
[00:32.19] Of all that hardcore dance that has gotten to be
[00:34.78] A little bit out of control it's cool to dance
[00:37.20] But what about the groove that soothes that moves romance
[00:40.59] Give me a soft subtle mix
[00:42.36] And if it ain't broke then don't try to fix it (don't try to fix it)
[00:45.44] And think of the summers of the past
[00:47.39] Adjust the base and let the alpine blast
[00:49.99] Pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme
[00:52.43] And put your car on cruise and lay back
[00:54.60] 'Cause this is summertime (summertime)
[00:55.76] Summer, summer, summertime (ooh, summertime)
[01:00.79] Time to sit back and unwind (time to sit back and unwind)
[01:05.77] Summer, summer, summertime (summertime)
[01:11.00] Time to sit back and unwind (time to sit back and unwind)
[01:15.35] School is out and it's a sort of a buzz
[01:17.90] But back then I didn't really know what it was
[01:20.82] But now I see what have of this
[01:22.69] The way that people respond to summer madness
[01:25.81] The weather is hot and girls are dressing less
[01:27.72] And checking out the fellas to tell 'em who's best
[01:30.30] Ridin' around in your jeep or your benzos
[01:33.13] Or in your nissan sitting on lorenzos
[01:35.55] Back in Philly we be out in the park
[01:37.70] A place called the Plateau is where everybody go
[01:40.42] Guys out hunting and girls doing likewise
[01:42.92] Honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes
[01:46.05] She turn around to see what you beeping at
[01:48.22] It's like the summer's a natural afrodesiac
[01:50.56] And with a pen and pad I compose this rhyme
[01:52.90] To hip you and to get you equipped for the summertime
[01:56.29] Summer, summer, summertime (ooh, summertime)
[02:01.25] Time to sit back and unwind (time to sit back and unwind)
[02:06.38] Summer, summer, summertime (summertime)
[02:11.20] Time to sit back and unwind (time to sit back and unwind)
[02:15.75] It's late in the day and I ain't been on the court yet
[02:18.14] Hustle to the mall to get me a short set
[02:20.74] Yeah, I got on sneaks but I need a new pair
[02:23.24] 'Cause basketball courts in the summer got girls there
[02:26.34] The temperature's about 88
[02:28.38] Hop in the water plug just for old times sake
[02:30.94] Break to ya crib change your clothes once more
[02:32.91] 'Cause you're invited to a barbeque that's starting at four
[02:35.87] Sitting with your friends 'cause y'all remincise
[02:38.02] About the days growing up and the first person you kissed
[02:40.82] And as I think back makes me wonder how
[02:43.15] The smell from a grill could spark up nostalgia
[02:46.66] All the kids playing out front
[02:48.27] Little boys messin' round with the girls playing double-dutch
[02:51.29] While the DJ's spinning a tune as the old folks dance at your family reunion
[02:56.48] Then six o'clock rolls around
[02:59.12] You just finished wiping your car down
[03:01.72] It's time to cruise so you go to the summertime hangout
[03:04.78] It looks like a car show
[03:06.88] Everybody come lookin' real fine
[03:08.70] Fresh from the barber shop or fly from the beauty salon
[03:11.80] Every moment frontin' and maxin'
[03:13.96] Chillin' in the car they spent all day waxin'
[03:16.43] Leanin' to the side but you can't speed through
[03:18.86] Two miles an hour so everybody sees you
[03:21.72] There's an air of love and of happiness
[03:24.05] And this is the Fresh Prince's new defintion of summer madness
[03:27.35] Summer, summer, summertime (summertime)
[03:32.28] Time to sit back and unwind (sit back and unwind)
[03:37.27] Summer, summer, summertime (summertime)
[03:42.26] Time to sit back and unwind (time to sit back and unwind)
[03:47.57] Summer, summer, summertime (summertime)
[03:52.46] Time to sit back and unwind (sit back and unwind)
[03:57.02]
