Here's A Fun Tune For The Summer....
I think :D

http://youtube.com/watch?v=uwIGZLjugKA
All Summer Long

It was 1989, my thoughts were short my hair was long
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
She was seventeen and she was far from in-between
It was summertime in Northern Michigan
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh

Splashing through the sand bar
Talking by the campfire
It's the simple things in life, like when and where
We didn't have no internet
But man I never will forget
The way the moonlight shined upon her hair


And we were trying different things
We were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long

Catching Walleye from the dock
Watching the waves roll off the rocks
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
We'd blister in the sun
We couldn't wait for night to come
To hit that sand and play some rock and roll

While we were trying different things
And we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

Now nothing seems as strange as when the leaves began to change
Or how we thought those days would never end
Sometimes I'll hear that song and I'll start to sing along
And think man I'd love to see that girl again



Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long


Of course in my case, we're talking 1979 not 89 :P

3. Isn't that Kid Rock's remake of Alan Jackson's Chattahoochee?
Edited on Mon Jul-14-08 11:27 AM by southpaw
Well... move it from Georgia to Michigan, add a Sweet Home Alabama sample (and, if you listen close, a snippet of the piano line from Werewolves of London) and you've got Kid Rock's comeback vehicle.

I guess I would like him more if he weren't such a neo-con.

Catchy tune, though. Any Zevon fan would agree.

5. similar premise
Since he stole the Zevon piano lines and the sweet home Alabama music I still like it tho better than Alan Jackson
