She was standinâ there with her big, blue, question-mark eyes
Sayin, âWould you stay the night?â
And Me, I was just seventeen, my very first time
But I knew it was right
She pulled off my baseball hat
We kissed and I knew there was no looking back
By the end of May
I could feel the change
She pulled me close to sayâŠ.
1st Chorus
I want a summer of misbehavinâ
Out all night, no reservations
Hittinâ that river, strippinâ down âtil the sun comes up
Oh, I want a summer of love
June flew by, before we knew it, it was the 4th of July
So we headed to the Tennessee line
Bought a hundred bottle rockets, shot âem up in the sky
And they lit up the nightâŠ.
Like risinâ stars that burn to dust
And I said, baby, thatâs just like us
Someone set us up, lit the fuse
Two young lovers with nothing to loseâŠ..
2nd Chorus
But a summer of misbehavinâ
Out all night, no reservations
Hittinâ that river, strippinâ down âtil the sun comes up
Oh, I want a summer of love
(Motown on the bridge)
No matter what happens, weâll have today
And Iâll always, pretty baby, wanna feel this wayâŠ.
Repeat 1st Chorus
Outro Chorus
Na, Na, Na,âŠ.
Out all night, hittinâ that river, strippinâ down âtil the sun comes up.
Like risinâ stars, poppinâ and burninâ to dust, yeah, that was us.
