Another Summer Storm

Another hot and sticky summer night,

and the thunder storms are rollin’ in

so I head down  to the basement

with my coffee cup full ‘a gin

I’ve got all my favorite records

Rock ‘n roll and them ol’ time blues:

Angry screamin’ and  lonely dreamin’

by folks who got nothin’ to lose

It’s cool and it’s safe in the basement

while the storm outside gets more frightenin'

I still hear the threat of the thunder

But can’t see the flash of the lightenin’
