Make It Til Summertime

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
