[Verse 1]
I'm a rock and roll vagabond
I'm a streetwise runaway
Sixteen when I left home
And I don't regret it a single day
I'm a sucker for a loud guitar
Got one tatooed on my chest
It's hot July
My mouth's too dry
You know I'll be screamin'...
[Chorus]
Hard rock summer!
Hard rock summer!
[Post-Chorus]
Rock all night
Gonna blow this town
Til morning light
Going round and round
Hard rock summer in the USA
[Verse 2]
Got a job, it was so damn hard
Just workin' for the man
All year long I saved my pay
And I stashed it in a rusty can
Wind got hot and blew my head
Then he blew me out of town
I parked my van at the L.A. sand
California screamin'...
[Chorus]
Hard rock summer
Hard rock summer
[Post-Chorus]
Rock all night
Gonna blow this town
Til morning light
Going round and round
Hard rock summer in the USA
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
Hard rock summer!
Hard rock summer in the US...
Hard rock summer!
Hard rock summer in the US!
Hard rock summer!
Hard rock summer in the US!
Hard rock summer!
Hard rock...
[Guitar solo, fading]
