All Summer Long

It was 1989, my thoughts were short, my hair was long

Caught somewhere between a boy and man

She was seventeen and she was far from in-between

It was summertime in northern Michigan

Splashing through the sandbar, talking by the campfire

It's the simple things in life like when and where

We didn't have no internet, but, man, I never will forget

The way the moonlight shined upon her hair

And we were trying different things

And we were smoking funny things

Making love out by the lake to our favorite song

Sipping whiskey out the bottle

Not thinking 'bout tomorrow

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Catching walleye from the dock, watching the waves roll off the rocks

She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul

We'd blister in the sun, we couldn't wait for night to come

To hit that sand and play some rock 'n' roll

While we were trying different things

And we were smoking funny things

Making love out by the lake to our favorite song

Sipping whiskey out the bottle

Not thinking 'bout tomorrow

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long (Sweet Home Alabama, oh!)

Now, nothing seems as strange as when the leaves begin to change

Or how we thought those days would never end

Sometimes, I hear that song and I'll start to sing along

And think, man, I'd love to see that girl again (Man, I'd like to see that girl again)

And we were trying different things

And we were smoking funny things

Making love out by the lake to our favorite song

Sipping whiskey out the bottle

Not thinking 'bout tomorrow

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

We were trying different things

And we were smoking funny things

Making love out by the lake to our favorite songs

Sipping whiskey out the bottle

Not thinking 'bout tomorrow

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Singing "Sweet Home Alabama" all summer long

Thinkin' 'bout "Sweet Home Alabama", yeah

Singing all summer long
