Deep Summer in the Deep South

Andalusia, Alabama
 In the August heat
 Hot enough to fry an egg on the cobblestones
 It's too hot to put your clothes on
 It's too hot to eat
 Mama says you're just all skin and lazy bones
 All day long a Coca-Cola
 Is all you can think of
 Late at night your body gets so
 Thirsty for his love
 It's just deep summer
 In the deep south
 All that constant perspiration
 Always makes a body pout
 Drippin' sweet nothings
 From your honeysuckle mouth
 Now you're drowning in deep summer
 In the deep south
 You go knockin' on his window
 When the moon is full
 Then you slip down to the river for a skinny dip
 Ain't no tellin' what can happen
 When push comes to pull
 And your heart starts melting in the summer's grip
 Ain't no way you can describe it
 How he makes you feel
 It's like the river took you in its arms
 And swept you to Mobile
 It's just deep Summer
 In the deep south
 All that constant perspiration
 Always makes a body pout
 Drippin' sweet nothings
 From your honeysuckle mouth
 And you're drowning in deep summer
 In the deep south
 Don't know how you're gonna stand it
 How much your heart aches
 All that you can do is hold on
 'Til that scarlet fever breaks
 It's just deep summer
 In the deep south
