Lyrics

Another Sweet Summer's Night on Hammer Hill

Oh the memories, they come a-streaming

When I'm walking 'round here dreaming

On a summer's night on Hammer Hill

Oh, it's hard to stay with the subject

When you think of something so perfect

As a summer's night on Hammer Hill

I had a friend who was slightly overweight

That means fatass in the seventh grade

I still remember the steamy dressing room

Where they beat him black and blue

Yeah they beat him black and blue

Oh, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty

An open window, someone's playing Tutti Frutti

It's a summer's night on Hammer Hill

I had a friend, a girl who looked sort of like a guy

I can't forget her dark painful eyes

When they burned her with a cigarette lighter

When the cops came they had to untie her

Another girl was free to grow up as cynical writer

Oh, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty

An open window, someone's playing Tutti Frutti

It's a sweet summer's night on Hammer Hill

I wanna die right here

On a sweet summer's night on Hammer Hill
