Verse 1
(E minor) (C major) (E minor) The
(D minor) fan don't work
but the window will
Boombox propped in the windowsill
(E minor) Young (D minor) homie on the court
with the b -ball skills
It's all Kenfolk here
You (E minor) can tell by the endo smell
(D minor) Streetball dreams of going
to the NFL
Partners coming home
from in them (E minor) jails
Leagues (D minor) blowing in the cool breeze
Drive -in movies
(E minor) Pop the top, wave hi to the QTs
(D minor) Ooh wee it feels so good
in the summer sunshine
(E minor) I (D minor) like to have a good time
and you're beautiful
We should link up, (E minor) do something unusual
(D minor) Catch a musical, maybe some dinner too
Take a ride to the coast
and en (E minor) joy the view
(D minor) Pop a bottle, a little cabernet
(E minor) Every year this time we like
to celebrate
(D minor) Summertime,
in (E minor) the city (D minor) (E minor)
(D minor)
Summertime, in (E minor) the city (D minor) (E minor)
(D minor) Don't have to wait for holidays
To get with friends and (E minor) fam ily
Life (D minor) is reason to celebrate
This should be (C major) every (E minor) day
(D minor) Don't have to wait for holidays
To get with friends and (E minor) fam ily
Life (D minor) is reason to celebrate
(E minor) This should be every day
(D minor) The concrete swells from the heat
The sweet smell of frankincense
Emerge from the street
Vendor (E minor) ducking police
(D minor) Millions of pieces from the same puzzle
Same struggle, new generation
A na (E minor) tion inside a nation
A (D minor) city inside a city
Everybody is ready
In their eyes I can see a new horizon
The (E minor) urban sun (D minor) set
The lights in the projects
protect young (E minor) mothers with
welfare checks
Gamblers place bets on
the World Cup
Mothers curling up their daughters'
Headed (C major) to the kitchen, (E minor) yada,
nothing better than a (D minor) summer
celebration
Winter's our vacation,
when it's hotter than July
I'm back (E minor) on that pavement
Remember (D minor) back in the days?
House parties in the basement
We was jamming to the radio station
The DJ would (B flat minor) play that one
jam
that would make (D minor) all
the girls (B flat minor) dance
Everybody in the hood would attend
(D minor) I didn't (B flat minor) think it ever would end
Bugging (D minor) out, just me (E minor) and my friends
I wanna do it again
(D minor) Don't have to wait for holidays
To be with friends and (E minor) fam ily
Life (D minor) is reason to celebrate
This should be (C major) every (E minor) day
Don't (D minor) have to wait for holidays
To be with friends and (E minor) family
Life (D minor) is reason to celebrate
This (E minor) should be everyday
I wake up early in the morning
Do my sun salutation
Get back starting (C major) out the day
(E minor) In deep meditation
No (D minor) work, no school, no shirt
No shoes today,
all I gotta do is go to a barbe (E minor) cue
Fire (D minor) hy drants as waterfalls
We at the fruit stand
with food stamps
Watching lil (E minor) sis do her new dance
(D minor) Baby's being born
New parents so happy
Lil nappy -haired soldier
look just like (E minor) his daddy
Wel (D minor) come to the hood,
lil homie, what it do?
When (E minor) you look up in the sky
and see the sun,
that's you (D minor)
Summertime
In (E minor) the city (D minor) (E minor) (D minor)
(E minor) (D minor) (E minor)
Don't (D minor) have to wait for holidays
To get with friends and (E minor) fam ily
Life (D minor) is reason to celebrate
We should do (C major) every (E minor) day
(D minor) Don't have to wait for holidays
To get with friends and (E minor) fam ily
(D minor) Life is pleasing to celebrate
(E minor) It should be everyday (D minor)
