Lord, I ain't never seen weather like this 
It's a hundred and ten in the shade 
It feels like the devil moved here himself 
To see the trouble he made 

Everybody's 'bout to go insane, 
They're crazy from the heat 
Nobody wants to go outside, 
There's danger in the street 

It's gonna be a long, hot summer 
People dream of leavin' town 
Get ready for a long, hot summer 
Feel the hammer comin' down, comin' down 

You see the heat comin' up from the sidewalk 
You can feel the temperature rise 
All I see is a blazin' sun 
Burning a hole in the sky 

I never thought that it would be like this 
24 hours a day 
It's too hot to sleep, we're in trouble so deep 
And you know there's no running away 

It's gonna be a long, hot summer 
This place is like a burning hell 
Get ready fot a long, hot summer 
There ain't no water in the well 

It's a long, hot summer 
A lot of sweat and misery 
It's a long, hot summer 
It's killin' you and killin' me 

So you scream and shout, but there's no way out 
You just live with a lock on your door 
There's a fire in the sky and the earth is so dry 
Like a cracking ground you can't take anymore 

It's three o'clock in the morning (don't do it) 
You wait for the sirens to moan (don't do it) 
You stare at the trigger, but somehow you figure 
You don't feel like dying alone (don't do it) 

The mean streets are gettin' meaner, 
Everybody's got a gun 
This ain't no city, it's a nightmare darlin' 
We're all dying in the sun 

It's gonna be a long, hot summer 
People dream of leavin' town 
Get ready for a long, hot summer 
Feel the hammer comin' down 

It's a long, hot summer 
Haven't seen a drop of rain 
It's a long, hot summer 
Nothin's gonna kill the pain
