Summertime (feat. Hampton Hawes and Danny Richmond) [2022 Remaster] - Charles Mingus

We've got barefoot ladies and tricked out Mercedes And people gettin' crazy on the boulevard We've got classic colas and ice cold coronas And big pool parties in the back yard, I said Hey that's the way we do it New friends and blue skies that never end Hey that's the way we like it Good times, sunshine and summertime You'll see straw sombreros and t-top camaros Stereos blastin' in the parking lot You'll see rock hard bodies and bikini hotties And everybody's got it goin' on They're showing what they got Hey that's the way we do it New friends and blue skies that never end Hey that's the way we like it Good times, sunshine and summertime I said, hey everybody can't you feel the rhythm now? Hey everybody don't you want to party? Hey everybody can't you feel the rhythm now? Hey everybody don't you wanna party? Hey that's the way we do it New friends and blue skies that never end Hey that's the way we like it Good times, sunshine and summertime Hey that's the way we do it New friends and blue skies that never end Hey that's the way we like it Good times, sunshine and summertime Good times, sunshine and summertime Good times, sunshine and summertime

So I'll Pick my keys up and pack my bag let go of my home Say goodbye to the people I love And the people that give When my time comes run I'll learn to let you go When that time is I will go and live on my own I'll go on my own (yeah) I'll remember the days went beneath your clothes I'll remember the people who help me grow I will build a house on the road I'll remember your face when my time is alone Time is alone So I'll pick up my keys head up north where no one to Say that I can't live my life with out a home When my time comes run I'll learn to let you go And when that time is i will go and live on my own I'll go on my own I'll remember the days went beneath your clothes I'll remember the people who helped me grow I will build a house on the road I'll remeber your face when my time is alone My time is alone I won't live in the shadows of the dark Don't let me forget who to thank now I won't let you down (No) I won't live in the shadowns of the dark Don't let me forget who to thank now And I won't let you down No I, I won't (I don' know what he said) I'll remember the days spent beneath your clothes I'll remember the people who help me grow I will build a house on the road I'll remember your face when my time is alone I'll remember your face when my time is alone I'll remember your face when my time is alone And your at home I'm on my own I'm on my own (And your at home, I'm on my own And your at home, I'm on my own And your at home, I'm on my own And your at home, I'm on my own)
