Well, the kid and me were the team to beat
We could stand up with the big boys, generate some heat
And we never thought nothin' about
Livin' on the street back then.
Yes sir, we lied a little, and we maybe stole some
sayin "Southern California, here we come"
and we took off down the highway
Sayin' never goin' back again
It was on the first day of summer
We were the number one outfront runner
On the first day of summer
Nothin' feels the same
And it feels so good
It was on the first day of summer
On the first day of summer
On the first day of summer
The whole world knows your name
And it feels so good
And the kid was drivin' and I rode shotgun
We were splittin' up the money from our number ones
Beatin' time to the radio
Yes I'm gonna be someone
Campin' by the road out in Santa Fe
The kid stole the keys and then he drove away
I wound up washin' dishes in a Holiday Inn
Sometime I wonder what became of him
It was on the first day of summer
We were the number one outfront runner
On the first day of summer
Nothin' feels the same
And it feels so good
It was on the first day of summer
On the first day of summer
On the first day of summer
The whole world knows your name
And it feels so good
We could stand up with the big boys, generate some heat
And we never thought nothin' about
Livin' on the street back then.
