	Story Behind the Song Wrote this song back in 1998 about a fictional situation between a boy and a girl. Turned out to be quite a little story here. Very folk inspired. Lyrics Hot Summer Days Words and Music by Scott Rogers (ASCAP) We used to play outside in a hundred degree heat The day would just wear on and on We had nowhere to go and nothin' to see Just layin' in the shade with dreams of what we would be Now the boys hated the girls and those girls never liked the boys But on those hot summer days, man, there was always a girl that stole my heart away -Chorus- When we were together There was nothin' better Just the two of us forever we'd stay on those hot summer days Mary and me we'd ride for hours two kids on bikes bigger than us Playin' basketball in the heat chasin' each other in our bare feet Never tellin our friends where we were always stealin glances when we could It was always me and my girl laughin' and cryin without a care in the world -Chorus- Yeah we'd go runnin between raindrops holding hands, kissing underneath the rain dreamin' of the days when we'd get older tellin' each other we'd be together forever One day i knew it would end never knew it would come so soon Mary had to move away and leave me behind I didnt know where or understand why That night we snuck out one last time I knew she was going, going for good I held her tight and I kissed her goodbye on a hot summer night -Chorus- We used to play outside in a hundred degree heat The day would just wear on and on We had nowhere to go and nothing to see just layin in the shade with dreams of what we would be.
