Oh baby baby what can I do You know you drive me crazy when I'm looking at you The summer's really here and it's time to come out Time to discover what fun is about Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Keep looking for the girls with their faces all tanned Lying on the beaches all covered in sand Stretching out their long legs lying in the sun They know they're beautiful they're having fun Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Keep looking for the girls with their faces all tanned Lying on the beaches all covered in sand Stretching out their long legs lying in the sun They know they're beautiful they're having fun Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer Here comes the summer
