Gordon Lightfoot - Summertime Dream

Summertime Dream
Gordon Lightfoot

Where the road runs down but the butternut grove
To old Bill Skinner's stream
Do tell at the noonday bell
In a lunch pail town in a one horse way
It's time for a summertime dream
You can live like a king and queen
Let's steal away in the noonday sun

Birds in all creation will be twitterin' in the trees
And down below's a pond I know
It's time for a summertime dream
You can see what chivalry means
You can swim in it if you please
And if you come 'round when the mill shuts down
It's time for a summertime dream
On a trip on down to wonderland
Let's steal away in the noonday sun

Where time gets lost with no straw boss
In love among the flowers
To old Bill Skinner's stream
Tallyin' up the hours
Where the road runs down by the butternut grove
It's time for a summertime dream
Do tell at the noonday bell
Birds in all creation will be twitterin' in the trees

And down below's a pond I know
You can see what chivalry means
You can swim in it if you please
And if you come 'round when the mill shuts down
Let's steal away in the noonday sun
It's time for a summertime dream
