Lyrics
CRUISIN? (Copyrighted)
Now life in the country rolls by slowly
But there?s always lots of work to do
Picking cotton in the summer was life?s number one bummer
But a boy does what a boy?s got to do
And Friday night would finally roll around
And Charlie had an old blue ford
We?d both meet at eleven thinkin?
Umm seventh heaven
Cruisin? to the city boulevard
CHORUS
And Mama didn?t know I was out
And daddy thought I was home too
But little did they know when they shut their bedroom door
I was slippin? out the window to cruise
We never had no pool
We never had no movies
Those things were miles off in town
But I?ve got some memories of some sweet country beauties
Swimmin? at the rice canal
Now Jenny, and Connie, and sweet Peggy Sue
They dated those rich boys from town
We decided we could land us some city babes
If we cruised till the town shut down
[Chorus]
And boys will be boys
That?s what they say
Young and just thinkin? about love
And I won?t dare tell you what we did was right
But I?m sure glad we did it that way
[Chorus]
Oh
[Chorus]
We were cruisin?
Yeah!
Cruisin in the summer time
Slippin? into the city
Lookin? for something pretty
Me and a friend of mine
Yeah!
We were cruisin?
Cruisin?
Cruisin? down 59
Rag top down
Ha!
Goin? to town
Deep in the summertime
We were cruisin?
