It was a fine, fine day in the city today
'Cause the engines couldn't keep upright
Let the whole world wait as I wake up the window
To let in the world outside

A thin white dress, with her hair in a mess
She was standin' with a couple of guys
A girl on the green, with the record machine said
At last we get a summertime

Dance, dance, dance, with the radio on
Addicted as the record machine played on
Dancing all night on the Summer Parade
She was addicted to the summertime that way

Coca cola girl sat and face the world
As her baby blue eyes disappeared
I guess it takes more than the sun to shine
Just to get the summertime round here

I really love the way that the young girls play
As there mothers used to do as a child
The big bad boys on the boys brigade said
At last we get a summertime

In the heavy, heavy heat of afternoon
As our heads held on to the ground
The teenage boys with the radio boxes
Chased their favorite girls around

As the sun beat down on the council hounds
I could've swear I started to cry
It was the one last time, I would see the summer
As an addict to the summertime

Dancing all night with the radio on
Dancing all night, all night, all night
And we dance all night
