Summertime came to Sycamore Street
They were seventeen and crazy from the heat
Full moon filled the Mississippi sky
That was their first time
Silhouettes danced on the livin' room wall
She took him by the hand and led him down the hall
Under the spell of a Casablanca fan
She became a woman and he became a man
chorus
Oh the fire of lust draws you in and burns you up
Oo the feelin's so sweet
Makes you go crazy
Crazy from the heat
All summer along they were slippin' around
Makin' the most of that feelin' they'd found
Word got out, the town began to talk
Her mama and daddy found out about it all
chorus
Cardboard boxes on a cold driveway
He watched from his window as they drove away
She looked up, she got in
He never saw her again
chorus
Summertime came to Sycamore Street
They were seventeen and crazy from the heat
