WRITTEN BY MICHAEL BACON Sweet July's not welcomed here Here the trees are green all year They don't need her summer's glow In this land of ice and snow Lakes of steel frozen flat July comes and changes that Smashing with her warm sun rays Tilts the docks and heaves the highways Chorus July you're a young girl July It's an old world My heart races when I see you nearing But I know I'll soon be hearing The sad songs the mad songs The everything is bad songs Won't you fly away July away I once had a girl so fair With eyes of blue and golden hair Don't know why she let me go To this land of ice and snow Chorus
