Bart Johnson - Summer Fever lyrics

Gaze out over the river So smooth and barely moving In this heat, a heavy Sweaty, lazy fever dream Held still by the hot sun Shimmering heat wave Mesmerize me so that the Day and night become like a river Summer fever slow It's Summer fever Summer fever Summer fever winds me tight up Until I rattle like the locust call Summer fever makes me edgy Puts me on the prowl Summer fever, I get a little to wild-eyed Easy, lover, ease me now Move into the shade Near the shallow where she wades the river She suddenly looks up to me And they flash just like sun on the water She says "I'm easy with my man I was raised in the South, you know" She wears a ribbon around her neck Like the women of long ago And the way that dress glides around you Is a danger to my mortal soul I home our Summer fever don't put me End up on a roll On a roll For you and I, like the river Summer fever flow It's Summer fever Summer fever Summer fever Summer fever For you and I, like the river Summer fever flow It's Summer fever Summer fever Summer fever Summer fever Summer fever
