Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'll bring the chips and the dips and root beer
Even though dark purple rain clouds are near
When you come around
You bring the summer
[Verse 2]
I'll lay the basket and blanket out neat
Even though weathermen say there'll be sleet
When you come around
You bring the summer
[Verse 3]
Summer for a sad, old snowman
Freezing in his room
Summer from your clear blue skies
Will melt away the winter's gloom
[Verse 4]
I'll bring the sun cream and beach volleyball
Even though there is no sand here at all
When you come around
You bring the summer
[Verse 5]
When you come around
You bring the summer
[Verse 6]
Summer for sad, old Jack Frost
Trying to warm his toes
Summer from your golden smile
Will paint the snow drops pinky rose
[Verse 7]
The birds and the bees will fly around me
Even though we're deep in January
When you come around
You bring the summer
[Verse 8]
I know with one bound
You bring the summer
When you come around
[Verse 9]
Summer baby
You bring the summer
You bring the summer around
[Verse 10]
Summer baby
You bring the summer
You bring the summer around
[Verse 11]
Summer baby
You bring the summer
You bring the summer around (Baby)
[Verse 12]
Summer baby
You bring the summer
You bring the summer around
[Verse 13]
Summer baby
You bring the summer
You bring the summer around
