Summertime

[00:00.07] Drums please!
[00:02.48]
[00:15.38] Summer, summer, summertime
[00:19.73] (Summertime)
[00:20.63] Time to sit back and unwind
[00:23.38] Summertime
[00:24.66] Here it is the groove slightly transformed
[00:27.62] Just a bit of a break from the norm
[00:29.97] Just a little somethin' to break the monotony
[00:32.42] Of all that hardcore dance that has gotten to be
[00:35.06] A little bit out of control it's cool to dance
[00:37.50] But what about the groove that soothes that moves romance
[00:40.67] Give me a soft subtle mix
[00:42.43] And if ain't broke then don't try to fix it (don't try to fix it)
[00:45.66] And think of the summers of the past
[00:47.56] Adjust the base and let the alpine blast
[00:50.11] Pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme
[00:52.69] And put your car on cruise
[00:54.23] And lay back 'cause this is summertime (summertime)
[00:55.72] Summer, summer, summertime
[00:58.17] (Ooh, summertime)
[01:00.92] Time to sit back and unwind
[01:03.63] (Time to sit back and unwind)
[01:05.84] Summer, summer, summertime
[01:08.93] (Summertime)
[01:10.99] Time to sit back and unwind
[01:13.49] (Time to sit back and unwind)
[01:15.99] Summer, summer, summertime
[01:19.26] (Summertime)
[01:21.06] Time to sit back and unwind
[01:23.43] (Time to sit back and unwind)
[01:25.34] School is out and it's a sort of a buzz
[01:28.24] But back then I didn't really know what it was
[01:31.12] But now I see what have of this
[01:32.97] The way that people respond to summer madness
[01:36.18] The weather is hot and girls are dressing less
[01:38.00] And checking out the fellas to tell 'em who's best
[01:40.64] Ridin' around in your jeep or your Benzos
[01:43.40] Or in your Nissan sitting on Lorenzos
[01:45.77] Back in Philly we be out in the park
[01:48.06] A place called "The Plateau" is where everybody go
[01:50.67] Guys out hunting and girls doing likewise
[01:53.17] Honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes
[01:56.23] She turn around to see what you beeping at
[01:58.50] It's like the summer's a natural aphrodisiac
[02:00.63] And with a pen and pad I composed this rhyme
[02:03.10] To hit you and get you equipped for the summer time
[02:06.42] Summer, summer, summertime
[02:09.63] (Summertime)
[02:11.64] Time to sit back and unwind
[02:14.04] (Time to sit back and unwind)
[02:16.31] Summer, summer, summertime
[02:19.56] (Summertime)
[02:21.48] Time to sit back and unwind
[02:24.17] (Time to sit back and unwind)
[02:25.99] It's late in the day and I ain't been on the court yet
[02:28.48] Hustle to the mall to get me a short set
[02:31.15] Yeah, I gotta on sneaks but I need a new pair
[02:33.58] 'Cause basketball courts in the summer got girls there
[02:36.54] The temperature's about 88
[02:38.52] Hop in the water plug just for old times sake
[02:41.12] Break to ya crib, change your clothes once more
[02:43.28] 'Cause you're invited to a barbeque that's starting at four
[02:46.27] Sitting with your friends as y'all reminisce
[02:48.54] About the days growing up and the first person you kissed
[02:51.16] And as I think back, makes me wonder how
[02:53.65] The smell from a grill could spark up nostalgia
[02:57.04] All the kids playing out front
[02:58.50] Little boys messin' round with the girls playing double-dutch
[03:01.76] While the DJ's spinning a tune
[03:03.61] As the old folks dance at your family reunion
[03:06.67] Then six o'clock rolls around
[03:09.53] You just finished wiping your car down
[03:12.08] It's time to cruise so you go to the summertime hangout
[03:14.91] It looks like a car show
[03:17.14] Everybody come lookin' real fine
[03:18.92] Fresh from the barber shop or fly from the beauty salon
[03:22.11] Every moment frontin' and maxin'
[03:24.16] Chillin' in the car, they spent all day waxin'
[03:26.66] Leanin' to the side but you can't speed through
[03:29.05] Two miles an hour so everybody sees you
[03:32.01] There's an air of love and of happiness
[03:34.17] And this is the Fresh Prince's new defintion of summer madness
[03:37.22] Summer, summer, summertime
[03:40.39] (Summertime)
[03:42.33] Time to sit back and unwind
[03:45.52] (And unwind)
[03:47.27] Summer, summer, summertime
[03:49.79] (Summertime)
[03:52.40] Time to sit back and unwind
[03:54.31] (Sit back and unwind)
[03:57.52] Summer, summer, summertime
[04:00.62] (Don't you know)
[04:02.50] Time to sit back and unwind
[04:05.89] (Yeah, it's alright)
[04:07.46] Summer, summer, summertime
[04:10.16] (Summertime)
[04:12.64] Time to sit back and unwind
[04:14.21] (Sit back and unwind...)
[04:15.45]
