She was standin’ there with her big, blue, question-mark eyes
Sayin, “Would you stay the night?”
And Me, I was just seventeen, my very first time
But I knew it was right
She pulled off my baseball hat
We kissed and I knew there was no looking back

By the end of May
I could feel the change
She pulled me close to say….

1st Chorus
I want a summer of misbehavin’
Out all night, no reservations
Hittin’ that river, strippin’ down ‘til the sun comes up
Oh, I want a summer of love

June flew by, before we knew it, it was the 4th of July
So we headed to the Tennessee line
Bought a hundred bottle rockets, shot ‘em up in the sky
And they lit up the night….
Like risin’ stars that burn to dust
And I said, baby, that’s just like us

Someone set us up, lit the fuse
Two young lovers with nothing to lose…..

2nd Chorus
But a summer of misbehavin’
Out all night, no reservations
Hittin’ that river, strippin’ down ‘til the sun comes up
Oh, I want a summer of love

(Motown on the bridge)
No matter what happens, we’ll have today
And I’ll always, pretty baby, wanna feel this way….

Repeat 1st Chorus

Outro Chorus
Na, Na, Na,….
Out all night, hittin’ that river, strippin’ down ‘til the sun comes up.
Like risin’ stars, poppin’ and burnin’ to dust, yeah, that was us.
