Billy Arnold Hot Summer Nights lyrics

(verse 1)
Well the sign up ahead said dangerous curves
I should've paid more attention to those two words
I rounded the bend and sure enough there she was with her hood up

Sun tanned legs, long blonde hair she said MR.
can I get a ride to anywhere, one look from her and I was
Under her spell so the rest is hard to tell

For the first few miles she didn't say a thing
then she rolled down the window and took off a ring
she said out loud i'm not gonna cry
then she drew back and let it fly

She said life's too short to live in the past
My name is Summer since you didn't ask
you seem like you're a pretty nice guy
by the way, thanks for the ride


(Chorus)
Well she loved me in ways, that i'd never seen
it was tender and tough and somewhere in between
the hottest eight days of my life
were those, Hot Summer nights
Yeah those hot Summer nights
That's right

(Verse 2)
Ever since we met i've never been the same
every time I sweat, I think of her name
she loved me hot then she left me cold
and that's just how the story goes

(Chorus)
