Well the street lights shine

Down on Blessing Avenue

Lovers they walk by

Holdin' hands two by two A breeze crosses the porch

Bicycle spokes spin 'round

Jacket's on, I'm out the door

Tonight I'm gonna burn this town down And the girls in their summer clothes

In the cool of the evening light

The girls in their summer clothes

Pass me by Kid's rubber ball smacks

Off the gutter 'neath the lamp light

Big bank clock chimes

Off go the sleepy front porch lights Downtown the store's alive

As the evening's underway

Things been a little tight

But I know they're gonna turn my way And the girls in their summer clothes

In the cool of the evening light

The girls in their summer clothes

Pass me by Frankie's Diner's

Over on the edge of town

Neon sign spinnin' round

Like a cross over the lost and found Fluorescent lights

Flicker above Bob's Grill

Shaniqua brings a coffee and asks "fill?"

And says "penny for your thoughts now my poor Bill" She went away

She cut me like a knife

Had a beautiful thing

Maybe you just saved my life In just a glance

Down here on Magic Street

Love's a fool's dance

I ain't got much sense but I still got my feet And the girls in their summer clothes

In the cool of the evening light

The girls in their summer clothes

Pass me by And the girls in their summer clothes

In the cool of the evening light

The girls in their summer clothes

Pass me by La la la la, la la la la la la la

La la la la, la la la la la la la

La la la la, la la la la la la la

La la la la, la la la la la la la
