Summer's Last Party

Louisa Burgess
Summer has always been my favorite time of year
September has always been the most bittersweet month
a last party to bring these long days to a close
it's hot it's sticky it's summer in Texas bring out the hose

Clean off the tables outdoors one more time
ice in the cooler, music ready and beer in the fridge
the grill is on for burgers, brisket and corn on the cob
get yourself ready for the oncoming mob
