Summer Nights

Happy Summer! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Yesterday marked the first day of summer, and I am SO EXCITED! ๐ŸŒž

What do you look forward to doing during the summer season?

I look forward to hiking and just spending time outdoors as much as I can! ๐Ÿ˜Š

To celebrate the arrival of summer, this week’s song is “Summer Nights” from the film Grease.

Lyrics:

Summer loving had me a blast
Summer loving happened so fast
I met a girl crazy for me
Met a boy cute as can be
Summer days drifting away
To-ah! Oh, the summer nights
Well-a, well-a, well-a, huh
Tell me more, tell me more
Did you get very far?

Tell me more, tell me more
Like does he have a car?
Uh huh (doo doo)
Uh huh (doo doo)
Uh huh (doo doo doo doo doo)
She swam by me, she got a cramp
He ran by me, got my suit damp
I saved her life, she nearly drowned
He showed off, splashing around
Summer sun, something’s begun
But ah! Oh, the summer nights
Well-a, well-a, well-a, huh
Tell me more, tell me more
Was it love at first sight?
Tell me more, tell me more
Did she put a fight?
Dow, doobie do, doobie do
Doobie, doobie, doobie
Dow, doobie do, doobie do
Doobie, doobie, doobie, dow
Took her bowling in the Arcade
We went strolling, drank lemonade
We made out under the dock
We stayed up ’til ten o’clock
Summer fling, don’t mean a thing
But ah! Oh, the summer nights
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Tell me more, tell me more
But you don’t gotta brag
Tell me more, tell me more

‘Cause he sounds like a drag
Shoo bop bop, shoo bop bop
Shoo bop bop, shoo bop bop
Shoo bop bop, shoo bop bop
Shoo bop bop, yeah!
He got friendly, holding my hand
Well, she got friendly down in the sand
He was sweet, just turned eighteen
Well, she was good, you know what I mean
Summer heat, boy and girl meet
But ah! Oh, the summer nights
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Tell me more, tell me more
How much dough did he spend?
Tell me more, tell me more
Could she get me a friend?
It turned colder, that’s where it ends
So I told her we’d still be friends
Then we made our true love vow
Wonder what she’s doing now
Summer dreams ripped at the seams
But, oh
Those summer
Nights!
(Tell me more, tell me more, more, more)

Isn’t is such a fun song?

I really enjoyed watching Grease when I was growing up! I remember spending one new year’s eve watching the sing-along version with my family and singing the songs together until it was midnight. ๐Ÿ˜„

I remember my favorite part of the film being when Danny and Sandy end up together. ๐Ÿ˜What is your favorite part of the film?

I had the soundtrack to the movie and listened to it so often! I always thought Oliva Newton-John had such a beautiful voice! ๐Ÿ’œ

Considering how often I listened to the soundtrack, I’m surprised that I don’t know all the words to this song by heart! ๐Ÿ˜‰

What is your favorite song from the film?

I hope you have an eventful summer! ๐ŸŒž

Wishing you well!๐Ÿ’š
