[Intro]  
(A)  
[Verse]
They're Adrinkin' on the deck down at Maggie's Margaritas
They're bumper to bumper out at the marine
They've been Dwaitin' all spring, it's a Asummer thing
Well the Asun is gettin' ripe and the water is gettin' warmer
The days are gettin' longer and them shorts are gettin' shorter
You won't hear Dme complain, it's a Asummer thing
[Chorus]
So, DGrab the Cerveza, and Eeveryone raise 'em
And Alet's all give thanks for today
We Dmay not remember EJune through September
F#mDrinkin' are Etroubles a- Dway, it's a Asummer thing
[Verse]
This Alittle party cove ain't no Panama City
But the beers ice cold and our girls are just as pretty
Drivin' us Dboys insane, it's a Asummer thing
Well the Amoon is comin' out and we're just getting started
We're gonna build us a fire and play some Bob Marley
And Dwe'll all sing, it's a Asummer thing
[Chorus]
So, DGrab the Cerveza, and Eeveryone raise 'em
And Alet's all give thanks for today
We Dmay not remember EJune through September
F#mDrinkin' are Etroubles a- Dway, it's a Asummer thing
[Instrumental]
