Hot Summer Nights lyrics by Helen Schneider
Hot Summer Nites - Helen SchneiderIntro
1. Refrain
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
1. Strophe
Wild eyed young guys looking for fights
walking around under city lights.
Streets that burn with a heat that shimmers.
People going crazy, emotions simmer.
2. Refrain
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
2. Strophe
Bets run high, nervous heat
cards on the steps, dice in the street.
Girls that burn with a woman's desire,
down in an alley way life's on fire.
3. Refrain
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
Instrumental
3. Strophe
Sharks on the street got a real cheap deal.
Kids playing cops who know how to steal.
Old ones talk about the life they've had
most agree that the world's gone mad.
4. Refrain
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
5. Refrain
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
Hot summer nites, burning lights
live till tomorrow, survive!
