Walter Egan (With The Malibooz) - Hot Summer Nights '81 lyrics
rate meThere was a time, not too far gone
When "Night" came and sang my song
About the bands and the things we’d done
Soon our life story hit number one
Return with me to a time and place
When me and John, Chris, Tom, and Ace
Were legendary in the streets and schools
In a band called The Malibooz
In the gyms and the dark hot rooms
With all the kids dancin' to our tunes
It felt good when we'd get it right
Rockin’ through the hot summer nights
Oooh…
Hot summer nights
Oooh…
Hot summer nights
Upon a time once times were best
In a band we were not like the rest
And all for one 'til we reached our goal
We played it hot and we played our roles
But now it’s all just memories
All the gigs and my buddies
Movin’ on their chosen way
Far away are our high school days
I wish I could turn back the page
And be with my friends up on the stage
Let the dreams be our spotlight
Once more on a hot summer night
Oooh…
Hot summer nights
Oooh…
Hot summer nights
Yeah!
So here’s a song for Malibooz
For Dangerfish, Wheels, Sageworth too
Professional, Magneto Bands
Forever hot our legend stands
Yes, it stands and always will
The songs we sung are in us still
Shining out so big and bright
Like the stars on a hot summer night
Oooh…
Hot summer night
Hot summer night
Oooh…
Hot summer night
Oooh…
Hot summer night
Hot summer night
Oooh…
Hot summer night
So hot, so hot, so hot
So hot so hot so hot
Such a hot summer night
We’re so hot, so hot
Summer night
Summer night…
All right yeah!<br />
