Summer Nights (Broadway/Original Cast Version/1972)
Lyrics
Well, I been spending a lot of time hangin' around down at the beach
Oh yeah?
All right, all right, you guys
Hey
You wanna know what happened?
Are you kidding? Come on, all right!
Well, I met a boy this summer
It was all very romantic (Oh yeah?)
Summer lovin'
Had me a blast
Summer lovin', happened so fast
Met a girl, crazy for me
Met a boy, cute as can be
Summer day drifting away
To uh-oh, those summer nights
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh
Tell me more, tell me more
Did you get very far?
Tell me more, tell me more
Like, does he have a car?
Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh (doo doo, doo doo, doo doo doo doo)
She swam by me, she got a cramp (uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh)
He ran by me, got my suit damp (uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh)
Saved her life, she nearly drowned (uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh)
He showed off, splashing around (doo doo wop wop wop)
Summer sun, something's begun
And uh-oh, those summer nights
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh
Tell me more, tell me more
Was it love at first sight?
Tell me more, tell me more
Did she put up a fight?
Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh (doo doo, doo doo, doo doo doo doo)
Took her bowling in the arcade (dooby dooby dooby dow)
We went strolling, drank lemonade (dooby dooby dooby dow)
We made out under the dock (dooby dooby dooby dow)
We stayed out till ten o'clock (doo wa wa, doo wa wa)
Summer fling, don't mean a thing
But uh-oh, those summer nights (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Tell me more, tell me more
But you don't have to brag
Tell me more, tell me more
'Cause he sounds like a drag
Shoo-bop-bop, shoo-bop-bop, shooda-bop-bop, shooda-bop-bop
He got friendly, holding my hand (shooda-bop-bop, shooda-bop-bop)
Well she got friendly down in the sand (shooda-bop-bop, shooda-bop-bop)
He was sweet, just turned eighteen (shooda-bop-bop, shooda-bop-bop, yeah)
