One Crazy Summer

ONE CRAZY SUMMER - Written by Carroll Bryant


"Wow, it sure is cold outside. Man, look at it snow. It's going to be one of those chilly nights. I think I'll just relax in my recliner, right in front of the fireplace. Yeah, that's the ticket. I'm so comfortable. This is one of those nights when you get that cozy feeling, makes you wish you had a girl with you, and a cheap bottle of whiskey. What's that? You don't have a girl? Well, don't feel too bad my friend because I don't have one either. I used to have one though. A very special girl she was indeed. The kind that makes the hairs stand up on the back of your neck. She is so sexy. Yeah, I'm thinking about her now. Oh, but what the hell, she's gone now, but she was mine in the summertime, I tell ya. Not mine no more, no sir. One thing's for certain though ..... it was one hell of a .... summer!"


She was a beauty queen, such a lady
They way she walked, they way she talked
Drove me crazy
Love was a special game we were playing
In the fire nights I still remember

It was one crazy summer
Oh what a bummer
Because now it's over
Will there ever be another crazy summer?

We made our moves, winners and losers
We didn't care
We had our share
Belly boozers
Passion was beautiful in the dark nights
Two little rascals, I still remember

It was one crazy summer
Oh what a bummer
Because now it's over
Will there ever be another crazy summer?

David Lee was going crazy from the heat
Miami Vice was hitting the streets
Prince with Revolution was dancing to the beat
Top Gun the movie had them sitting in their seats

Lady Madonna surprised us with True Blue
I fell in love with her
I know that you did too
The legend of Rod Stewart proved he wasn't through
Rap man Mr. Falco had his say so too

I still remember all that went around
Most of my memories was when I laid that woman down
All of my crazy friends were lost in party town
Everyone was dancing to the Nu Shooze new wave sound

I still remember 
It was one crazy summer
Oh what a bummer
Because now it's over
And I wonder
Will there ever be another crazy summer?


"Well, I'm just going to throw another log into the fire then get drunk. I might pass out, wake up and get drunk again. Have a good one, winter that is. See you next summer."

It was one crazy summer
Oh, what a bummer because now it's over
And I wonder, will there ever be another ... crazy summer?
