Summertime

Summertime
Written by: Justin Neal Sutterfield

A time for Family Bar-B-Q’s and fun
Speed time relaxing in the sun
Watching the children play and run
The ice cream smiles
Come on over and stay awhile
A time for picnics and fairs
How I whish you and I could be there
Pop corn and cotton candy
That sweet smell fills the air
How it should be
Summertime all year long
Didn’t Alan Jackson sing that song
Candy or Carmel Apple
Oh, how that appeals to me
Summertime all year long
That’s how it should be
Like that song goes
Its five o’clock somewhere
And that’s where I want to be
