Summertime by George Gershwin and DuBose Heyward from “Porgy & Bess”
Summertime and the livin’ is easy
Fish are jumpin’ and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy’s rich and your ma is good-lookin’
So hush little baby, don’t you cry
(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life by Franke Previte, John Previte, John DeNicola and Donald Markowitz from “Dirty Dancing”
Now I’ve had the time of my life
No, I never felt like this before
Yes I swear it’s the truth
And I owe it all to you
Surfin’ U.S.A. by The Beach Boys
If everybody had an ocean
Across the U.S.A.
Then everybody’d be surfin’
Like Californi-a
You’d see them wearing their baggies
Huarache sandals too
A bushy bushy blond hairdo
Surfin’ U.S.A
Walking on Sunshine by Katrina & The Waves
Here Comes the Sun by The Beatles
Here comes the sun, doo-d-doo-doo
Here comes the sun
And I say, “It’s alright”
Summer Nights by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey from “Grease”
[DANNY]
Summer lovin’, had me a blast
[SANDY]
Summer lovin’, happened so fast
[DANNY]
I met a girl crazy for me
[SANDY]
Met a boy cute as can be
[DANNY & SANDY]
Summer days driftin’ away
To, uh oh, those summer nights
