Lovin' Spoonful.
Το τραγούδι αυτό ήταν η πρώτη δυναμική "απάντηση στη βρετανική εισβολή", που , μέσω των Μπιτλς, κυριαρχούσε , τη δεκαετία του '60, στα αμερικανικά Hits.
Το Summer in the city κατέχει σταθερά μια πολύ καλή θέση ανάμεσα στα 100 καλύτερα τραγούδια όλων των εποχών στις Ενωμένες Πολιτείες.
Το τραγούδι αφιερώνεται σε όσους είναι υποχρεωμένοι να βιώνουν το ελληνικό καλοκαίρι στις τερατώδεις τσιμεντουπόλεις τους.
Αφιερώνεται επίσης και στην Αντωνία μας , που μας σνομπάρει

The Lovin' Spoonful
(John Sebastian - Mark Sebastian - Steve Boone)
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be allright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city
Cool town, evening in the city
Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty
Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be allright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city.
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around, people looking half dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come-on come-on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be allright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
That the days can't be like the nights
In the summer, in the city
In the summer, in the city
