Summertime〈Album Version〉

(Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) here it is a groove slightly transformed Just a bit of a break from the norm Just a little something to break the monotony Of all that hard-core dance that has gotten to be A little bit out of control, it's cool to dance But what about a groove that soothes to move romance Give me a soft subtle mix And if ain't broke then don't try fix it And think of summers of the past Adjust the bass and let the alpine blast Pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme And put your car on cruise and lay back 'Cause it's summertime (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) School is out and it's soft of a buzz But back then I didn't really know what it was But now I see what happened is the way people respond to summer madness The weather is hot and girls dressing less And checking out the fellas to tell 'em who's best riding around in your jeep or your Benzo's or in your Nissan sitting on Lorenzos Back in philly we be out in the park A place called the plateau is where everybody go Guys out hunting and girls doing likewise Honking at the honey in front of you with the light eyes She turned around to see what you beepin' at It's like the summer's a natural aphrodisiac With a pen-n-pad I composed this rhyme To hip you and get you equipped for the summertime (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) It's last in the day and I ain't been on the court yet Hustled to the mall to get me a short set Yeah I got on sneaks But I need a new pair 'Cause basketball courts in the summer got girls there The temperature's about 88 Hop in the water plug just for old time sake Break to ya' crib change your clothes once more 'Cause you're invited to a barbecue startin' at 4 sittin' with your friends as ya'll reminisce About the day's growing up and the first person you kissed And as I think back makes me wonder how The smell from a grill can spark up a nostalgia All the kids, playing up front Little boys messin' around with the girls playing double dutch While the DJ's spinnin' a tune as the old folks dance at your family reunion Then six o'clock rolls around You just finish wiping your car down It's time to cruise so you go to the summertime hang out It looks like a car show Everybody come lookin' real fine Fresh from the barber shop and fly from the beauty salon Every moment frontin' and maxin' Chilin' in the car they spent all day waxing Leaning to the side but you can't speed through 2 miles an hour so everybody sees you there's an air of love and of happiness And this is the Fresh Prince's new definition of summer madness (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind) (Summer summer summertime, and just sit back and unwind)
