It sure was a long long long hot summer night As far as my eyes could see Well, my heart was way down In a cold cold winter storm Well, my darlin', where can you be? Where can you be, baby? Where can you be? There were three sugar walls and a two candy cane windows But the serious mood melted ah all those in sight Everybody's on fire but I'm uh snowin' in a cold blizzard Where are you on this ah hot cold summer? Where are you on this ah hot cold summer? Where are you on this ah hot cold summer night? Around about this time the telephone blew its horn across the room Scared little Annie clean out of her mind and I tell ya Roman the Candle he peeps out of his peek-a-boo hide and seek And grabbed little Annie from the ceiling just in time And the telephone keeps on screamin' Yeah yeah yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Hello, said my shaky voice, well how you doin' I start to stutter Ah, can't cha tell I'm ah doin' fine There was my baby talkin' she's way down 'cross the border She says I'm gonna hurry to ya I've been a fool And I'm tired of cryin' Said I'm tired of cryin' Yeah, a long long long hot summer night As far as my eyes could see But I can ah feel the heat comin' on as my baby's gettin' closer I'm so glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me So glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me So glad my baby's comin' to rescue me Rescue, rescue, rescue Rescue, rescue Rescue, rescue, what'd I say Rescue me, rescue me Rescue, rescue me, rescue me Rescue ©1968, 1997 Experience Hendrix, L.L.C.
