Kings of the Summer

from Kings of the Summer by Will Gillespie

lyrics

Dreaming in the back lot, 17 years old
on top of the world
me & my buddies got the call of the wild
we knew we were
KINGS OF THE SUMMER

(chorus:)
And everyday was Saturday night
We never got caught, never thought we would
Man, we were right
'Cause every star was shining like a spotlight
on the KINGS OF THE SUMMER

Lighting up the city like a firework
wherever we go
Ripping up the back roads,
Kicking up gravel
with the KINGS OF THE SUMMER

(chorus)

Getting into trouble and running wild,
just a bunch of small-town big-shots
headed for the Big Time:
the KINGS OF THE SUMMER

(solo)

If I don't make it, I can fake it
'cause I already did
I was a KING OF THE SUMMER
back when I was a kid
All we gotta do is get out of here
and we're going to be alright
We're the KINGS OF THE SUMMER
Down on Main Street
under a streetlight

(chorus)

Dreaming in the back lot, 17 years old,
on top of the world
Me & my buddies got the call of the wild
we knew we were
KINGS OF THE SUMMER
