Lovin' Spoonful, "Summer In The City"
Misheard Lyrics:
Hot now, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirty, pretty
Hot town, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All 'round people lookin' half-dead
Walking all 'round
Lookin' hotter than a match, yeah.
Back of my neck gettin' dirty, pretty
Hot town, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All 'round people lookin' half-dead
Walking all 'round
Lookin' hotter than a match, yeah.
Original Lyrics:
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half-dead
Walking on the sidewalk
Hotter than a match head.
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half-dead
Walking on the sidewalk
Hotter than a match head.
