Ok, I guess it’s time tofor me to spark it
But first, let’s pour some liquor out for our dearly departed
Now, pour a little mo' cuz it’s time to get it started
See the sun is on its shine so now who’s ready to party?
Ain’t nothin' like havin a buzz and a breeze
Good people, good music, good food and possibly some good weed
Maybe not...Don’t matter cause' I’m lifted off these good vibes
75 degrees and above me nothing but blue skies so shoo fly
the aroma of citronella, makes me feel betta'
Than a piece of bread when it’s buttered up with Nutella
The wifey, laides and fellas, my baby girl and the fam
This that summa summa summa summa time-JAM
- Bridge (PROlific) -
Yea, it’s time for grillin outside,
Or takin a cruise on Lake Shore Drive
With the top down
Fall and Spring are cool, Winter is pretty chilly
But nothin' beats summertime in my city
Whuddup Chi-town!?
- Bridge (V Lashae) -
We've been waiting
And saving all this vaction
And now, it's time for playin'
Rest and relaxation
- Hook - x3
Can't nobody ever rock a party quite like us
Cause' everybody at our party is somebody we love
(Summer, summer, summer-TIME)
Somone somewhere is finding summertime love
So come on, grab someone give em' a summertime hug
Might be a mother, sister , brother, cousin, grandfather, auntie
Or stranger, no time for danger too much love in the neighbor-HOOD
Shout if you reppin', recognize and respectin'
Every section and understandin' how we're all connected
From burbin' it out in Elgin to kickin' it at Millenium Park
Our hearts beat for the city they call the second when,
Really no other city can do it better than
The one that's Windy and sittin' pretty on Lake Michigan
Jordan watches over that Madhouse on Madison
Sox on 35th and the Cubbies posted on Addison
Taking the "L" ain't takin' a loss but, then again
You only understand that if you a true Chicagoan
Yo what's that saying? You know you from Chicago when
You eat deep dish, know how to parallel park and you love the summer maaannnnn
