lyrics: 

Well here she comes, a ray of sun
All tangled in her hair
That summertime gal of mine
Laughing at my winter coat
Her shoulders warm and bare
That summertime gal of mine

(chorus:)
That summertime gal of mine, mine, mine
That summertime gal of mine
That summertime gal of mine, mine, mine
That summertime, summertime gal of mine
That gal of mine

When April showers quit their fall
She takes me to her breast
That summertime gal of mine
My winter troubles great and small
She lays them all to rest
That summertime gal of mine

(chorus)

In the month of May I swear she'll stay
forever by my side
That summertime gal of mine
In June we watch the moon
waxing full with the rising tide
That sumertime gal of mine

(chorus)

Livin' by the July oak,
she makes me feel so fine
That summertime gal of mine
Her hair smells just as sweet
as mountain Columbine
That summertime gal of mine

(chorus)

(improvised section follows)
When autumn comes around
Where's my summertime girl


Well loving her is easy
like an August summer breeze
that summertime gal of mine
When September comes she walks away
through the falling leaves
That summertime gal of mine

There she goes a walking slow,
the evening in her hair
That summertime gal of mine
My winter coat hangs heavy
and she has not a care,
that summertime gal of mine

(chorus)
