It's a tractor firing up (firing up)
|
Kids playing in a field
|
Four wheels getting stuck (getting stuck)
|
A line singing out a fishing reel.
|
It's a cooler sliding in the bed of a truck
|
A tin roof dripping rain
|
Your baby saying, 'come, pick me up!'
|
Take me down to the riverbank!
|
|
Chorus:
|
These are sounds going down in a nowhere town
|
Underneath the wide open sky
|
It's the dust in the air and the freedom everywhere
|
Can't you hear it coming alive?
|
Makes you wanna drop it down a gear
|
And kill a couple of beers
|
Been waiting all year, now it's finally here
|
Back around, these are the sounds
|
Of summer (of summer, of summer)
|
|
It's the flick of a lighter (a lighter)
|
Lighting up a little smoke
|
Boots climbing barbwire,
|
A little spot nobody goes
|
Lawn chairs breaking out in the yard
|
To the firework boom
|
Hearing a heart beating in the dark,
|
Saying that she wants to
|
|
Chorus:
|
These are sounds going down in a nowhere town
|
Underneath the wide open sky
|
It's the dust in the air and the freedom everywhere
|
Can't you hear it coming alive?
|
Makes you wanna drop it down a gear
|
And kill a couple of beers
|
Been waiting all year, now it's finally here
|
Back around, these are the sounds
|
Of summer (of summer, of summer)
|
Yeah, the sounds of summer!
|
|
Round here that's what it's all about
|
So listen up and look around
|
It's who we are, it's what we love
|
So tonight let's crank 'em up!
|
|
Chorus:
|
These sounds going down in a nowhere town
|
Underneath the wide open sky
|
It's the dust in the air and the freedom everywhere
|
Can't you hear it coming alive?
|
It goes way too fast, it all disappears
|
And when it's gone, we'll still be here
|
Hanging around, missing the sounds of summer
|
Missing the sounds of summer
|
The sounds of summer
|
Yeah, the sounds of summer!
|
