Analysis of It's Summer Time
Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)
“It’s Summer Time!”, “The Heat is Here!”
It’s Another Hot and Stuffy Time of Year
It’s Summer Time, The Heat is On
Better Cool off Now It’s About to get Warm.
A Time to Wear Shorts, A Time to Keep Cool
A Time to Kick It and Hang by the Pool
A Time for Family, A Time for Friends
“It’s Summer Time!”, Let the Fun Begin.
A Time for Cookouts, A Time for Reunions
Don’t be conflicted with any Confusion
Keep it Together, Keep it Right
We Are Family, So We Are Tight.
“It’s Summer Time!” It’s Getting Hot!”
We Can All Chill at Our Favorite Spot
Drink our Milkshakes and our Smoothies
A Night Life of Clubin on Going to the Movies.
“It’s Summer Time!”, but it Won’t Last
Summer Time in Time will Pass
The Fun is Over I’m telling ya’ll
Autmn is Here It’s Time For Fall.
