Lyrics and translation

Original

When the temperature is down to four below

How my knees get to knockin'

I need to find some heat, you know, this cold really gets to me

Drives me out of my mind

But when the wind begins to blow

Like a duck that flies south for the winter

I'm a warm-blooded girl who likes to feel the sunshine against my skin

But on a warm summer day you can hear the children play

We were doing things just for the sake of having fun

Sometimes I get a craving to do a little sun bathin'

But when spring is here I know it won't be long

Till the time comes that I waited for all year, I like it

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like, that's what I like

People having fun

Groovin' in the sun

Red-breasted robins sing a song while the bees are makin' honey

Kids who need love, never fell in love, fall in love for the very first time

And on a day that's good and warm I want the keys to the Maserati

I just ride around actin' a clown, swingin' with the top down

Rock bodies really hoppin', kids are really rockin'

And people gettin' down with the rhythm of the day

But when it's really hot, the beach is my spot

Or coolin' out with the fire hydrant on

All the games that we play, that's what I really enjoy

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', smooth summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like, that's what I like

People having fun

Groovin' in the sun

Summertime lovin', summertime livin'

That's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like

That's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like

Summertime livin', yeah summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'

That's what I like, that's what I like, that's what I like

Summertime livin', sweet summertime lovin'
