the dog days of summer...they're HERE......

wish it would get cooler
i sure hate to beg

man, my head is feeling
just like a fried egg

the air is so still and
the humidity's high

if we don't get relief
think we're gonna die!

people move listlessly
the heat's worn 'em down

once green grass is now a
lovely shade of brown

it is so hard to breathe
with haze in the air

we look for any clouds
lately, they've been rare

tempers get much shorter
because we are hot

and people get meaner
they don't give a squat

katydids are chirping
way up in the trees

the air is barely stirred
there's hardly a breeze

it can't last forever
at least we agree...

can't He let it cool down
just a few degrees????
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

it can't last much longer
it can't last much longer
it can't last much longer
(at least i hope not...i
hate summertime heat!)

i wish it would be cooler here, too (and you have been in texas a LOT LONGER than i have; and you aren't still used to the heat!). well, chere', look at it this way...think of snow or think that each day that goes by is that much closer to fall and winter and coolness. that's what i do...love, me (collin, quit singing in my ear!!).
