Lyrics
Summer Blues
It never seemed funny, not having very much money. But those were the cards I was dealt. Far from those tall fables, when the cards start to hit the table those chilling fears are always felt.
Nice to know there's always something just a little bit better than nothing. I'm wonderin' what I should do. Watch the wind keep the flag a'flappin'; or I could make things a'happen. I'm'a jaded by summer blues. Summer Blues.
It never seemed funny on the night that I watched my honey make a beeline right on out of the door. While I'm flippin' to the next station and they're handin' out their adulation, I'm wonderin' if I'm ever gonna even the score.
Nice to know there's always something just a little bit better than nothing. I'm wonderin' what I should do. Watch the wind keep the flag a'flappin'; or I could make things a'happen. I'm'a jaded by summer blues. Summer Blues.
