[Verse 1]
When you took a buggy ride
With your sweetie by your side
And a walk down lovers' lane was so sublime
When a one-piece suit on women
Was the style when they went swimmin'
That's what they meant
By "the good old summertime"
[Verse 2]
When a nickel took you far
On an open trolley car
And a big banana split was just a dime
When high-buttoned shoes were proper
And the straw hat was a topper
That's what they meant
By "the good old summertime"
[Verse 3]
When a barbershop quartet
Joined in song each time they met
You would hear them harmonize "Sweet Adeline"
How their voices started glowing
When the beer would start inflowing
That's what they meant
By "the good old summertime"
When you took a buggy ride
With your sweetie by your side
And a walk down lovers' lane was so sublime
When a one-piece suit on women
Was the style when they went swimmin'
That's what they meant
By "the good old summertime"
[Verse 2]
When a nickel took you far
On an open trolley car
And a big banana split was just a dime
When high-buttoned shoes were proper
And the straw hat was a topper
That's what they meant
By "the good old summertime"
[Verse 3]
When a barbershop quartet
Joined in song each time they met
You would hear them harmonize "Sweet Adeline"
How their voices started glowing
When the beer would start inflowing
That's what they meant
By "the good old summertime"
