Summer in the School Yard Songtext

von City Boy

In the summer of '63, it was so damn hot you could hardly breathe
Kicking dust in the mission square, trace of perfume in the air

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Whatever happened to the calendar girl with the beautiful teeth?
Does she dream of me when she's sound asleep?

We all sang 'Yeah, Yeah, Yeah'
That summer in the schoolyard
It was oh so hot.
That summer in the schoolyard
Everybody sang 'Yeah Yeah Yeah'

She was klarilyn, Tuesday Weld, we were just thirteen but what the hell?
Let me tell you how a young boy feels when he hears the clickin'of a girls hi-heels

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

She wore a pin for a college boy, life's cruel to me
She couldn't care for the kid with the dirty knees

We all sang 'Yeah, Yeah, Yeah'.
That summer in the schoolyard
It was oh so hot
That summer in the schoolyard
Everybody sang 'Yeah Yeah Yeah'

Whatever happened to the calendar girl with the beautiful teeth?
Does she dream of me when she's sound asleep?

We all sang 'Yeah, Yeah, Yeah'.
That summer in the schoolyard
It was oh so hot
That summer in the schoolyard
Everybody sang 'Yeah Yeah Yeah'

We all sang 'Yeah Yeah Yeah'

Summer in the schoolyard
