I wanna have a hippie summer
flowers in my hair and lying on the grass
I wanna have a hippie summer
who know how much longer this earth is gonna last
don't wanna work for corporations
where nobody smiles and no one ever laughs
working nine to five in boxes
scurrying around with all the other rats
don't wanna be told that I'm just a sinner
I wanna have fun while I'm still in my prime
I wanna wash away the blood of winter
who knows next year it might just be mine
I wanna see the psychedelics
I wanna go out to the coast on the West
don't wanna lie among the relics
don't tell me no, just say yes
I wanna have a hippie summer
grow my hair down past my waist
don't wanna be here such a bummer
wanna take vacation from the human race
wear flowers in my hair say have a nice day
singing my songs all through the night
I wanna be there that's what I say
I don't care if it is wrong or if it's right
I wanna have a hippie summer
find peace in the valley and a California girl
it may be the last chance I hear the drummer
before the war and the end of the world
just one more hippie summer
a happy summer that I've been dreaming of
just one more hippie summer
a summer of love

HIPPIE SUMMER song lyrics revised version
by Joel Sattler
wanna have a season all my own
and have my own hippie summer
this old world is such a bummer
take a vacation for ever ever
just lie there in the grass, flowers in my hair
don't wanna work for the corporations
where no one smiles and nobody laughs
working nine until five in all the boxes in the cages
scurry round like all other lonely rats
we'll have freedom if we only dare
don't tell me please that it never can be true
there must be a way that somehow we can both break free
I know it sounds silly but you can come too
we'll be happy at least me and you
please don’t tell me that the world’s come to an end
I just wanna have a hippie summer with all of my friends
don't hear the drummer call for war
wash the winter so bloody off my hands
I know surely you can understand
I wanna have the summer I've been dreaming of
the whole world it deserves a summer full of endless love
