No Mercy in July Songtext

von Grant Lee Phillips

Rain won't pour No rainwater in the reservoir Cloudless sky Each year hotter than the one
Before Can't hold out long One more summer and we may
Be up and gone
No mercy in July No mercy and the sun's on fire The mercury just keeps on climbin' No mercy in July
Ain't one drop More rainwater in a soda pop Long hot nights Start sweatin' and ya just can't stop Start sweatin' and ya just can't stop
No mercy in July No mercy and the sun's on fire The mercury just keeps on climbin' No mercy in July
If it don't rain and things don't change Gonna' go bust Four long years, nothin' but tears Fruitbowl's gatherin' dust
Still no breeze It may jump another ten degrees Rain'd better come down Shade's no shelter on days like these Shade's no shelter on days like these
No mercy in July No mercy and the sun's on fire Mercury just keeps on climbin' No mercy in July No mercy and the sun's on fire Mercury just keeps on climbin' No mercy in July
No mercy in July, mmm No mercy in July…
