[Verse 1] Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning I sit around Trying to smile But the air is so heavy and dry Strange voices are saying What did they say Things I cant understand Its too close for comfort This heat has got right out of hand [Chorus] Its a cruel, cruel cruel summer Leaving me here on my own Its a cruel, its a cruel cruel summer Now youre gone [Slide Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Its a cruel, cruel cruel summer Leaving me leaving me here on my own Its a cruel, its a cruel cruel summer Now youre gone Youre not the only one
