Make It Til Summertime Songtext
von Shenandoah

I′ve been swinging this hammer in the freezing, driving rain
Another two month she's gonna be mine to claim
I′ve been saving every penny, every dollar I make
Come on father-time for July's sake
I can make her mine
If I can make 'til summertime

Yeah, she′s my barefoot sweet kiss on the river
Taking in that big moon, counting them stars together
Let the love flow like that muddy water
Can′t you smell that honeysuckle vine
I can make her mine
If I can make it 'til summertime


I got a spot picked out for a blanket ′neath a Georgia pine
I know if I can get her there, she's gonna have her lips on mine
The only cold ′round here's in a bucket of ice
A little muscadine wine, she won′t think twice
I can make her mine
If I can make it 'til summertime

She's my barefoot sweet kiss on the river
Taking in that big moon, counting them stars together
Let the love flow like that muddy water
Can′t you smell that honeysuckle vine
I can make her mine
If I can make it ′til summertime

Sunshine blue skies, that's her kinda weather
Don′t I wish it'd stay like this forever

She′s my barefoot sweet kiss on the river
Taking in that big moon, counting them stars together
Let the love flow like that muddy water
Can't you smell that honeysuckle vine
Yeah, I can make her mine
If I can make it ′til summertime
Yeah, I can make her mine
If I can make it 'til summertime
