[B] In these [F#] long hot summer [G#] [E] days, [B] need a way [A#] to cool ourselves [E] down.

[B] Popping on [F#] some Cotto's, the old [G#m] man got [E] down his [B] fangs, eating eggs [F#] with french fries on [E] the side.
Got [B] that [F#] Harley Davidson [D#m] in the hot [E] summer heat, [B] Lord [F#] knows that [G#m] I just [E] love to ride.
[F#] Go by and pick up that [E] Kentucky girl, [F#] she knew me when I got [G#m] my start.

[B] Give us a [F#] kiss baby, [G#m] make it all [E] in the same [B] place, you [F#] middies about to [G#m] drive me [E] a crazy wild.
[F#] But it's soon the sun will be [E] gone now, and [F#] this little town will be cool [G#m] enough.
