Hanging around in the old downtown in the summertime The sun beats down with a warm hot sound makes me feel sublime The lazy river flows right by as I wipe the sweat from around my eyes, The sun it penetrates right in, soaking down to my bones right through my skin. The river takes me down Around past the next bend Riding along the stream The stream that never ends It never sleeps at night Just keeps flowing on Through the dark and light As I sing here in this song The lazy river flows right by as I wipe the sweat from around my eyes, The sun it penetrates right in, soaking down to my bones right through my skin.
