Lightfoot Gordon Summertime Dream Lyrics

Summertime Dream Lyrics

Where the road runs down but the butternut grove

 To old Bill Skinner's stream

 Do tell at the noonday bell

 It's time for a summertime dream

 In a lunch pail town in a one horse way

 You can live like a king and queen

 Let's steal away in the noonday sun

 It's time for a summertime dream

 

 Birds in all creation will be twitterin' in the trees

 And down below's a pond I know

 You can swim in it if you please

 And if you come 'round when the mill shuts down

 You can see what chivalry means

 Let's steal away in the noonday sun

 It's time for a summertime dream

 

 On a trip on down to wonderland

 In love among the flowers

 Where time gets lost with no straw boss

 Tallyin' up the hours

 Where the road runs down by the butternut grove

 To old Bill Skinner's stream

 Do tell at the noonday bell

 It's time for a summertime dream

 

 Birds in all creation will be twitterin' in the trees

 And down below's a pond I know

 You can swim in it if you please

 And if you come 'round when the mill shuts down

 You can see what chivalry means

 Let's steal away in the noonday sun

 It's time for a summertime dream
