Summer Days

(album: Strawberry Mansion - 2021)

Got some money in my pocket
Got nowhere to go
Didn't make my bed this morning
Didn't even come close
There's a woman who adores me
But she's so far away
Another summer's coming towards me
Gonna be some lonely summer days

Sometimes I miss New Jersey
And the rides in Wildwood
But the sun there always burned me
So I left there when I could
I've been running my whole lifetime
Looking for a better way
Another summer's coming towards me
Gonna be some lonely summer days

Time goes around
Like a Ferris wheel on fire
Starts coming down
When you can't get any higher

Got in trouble in California
Joel came and drove me home
Now I'm back in Nashville
My mind is skipping like a stone
Got some money in my pocket
Looking for a game to play
Another summer's coming towards me
Gonna be some lonely summer days

Got some money in my pocket
Might as well give it away
Another summer's coming towards me
Gonna be some lonely summer days
