It's a dog day afternoon for sure
Soak it up man there ain't no cure
It's a dog day afternoon

On a beautiful summers day
Chilling out in flaming June oh my
An ice cold beer in my sweaty hand
I look up in awe at an azure sky
It's a dog day afternoon you feel me
The sun has set my spirit free
The temperature is rising this much is true
Can't cool down no matter what I do

It's a dog day and I can hardly breath
I was lost in the clouds but now I believe
It's dog day afternoon 

Looking across at the sultry horizon 
Sitting on my porch I contemplate
The seasons they quickly come and go
Embrace them with wonder don't hesitate
It's a dog day afternoon once again 
Feels like the whole world is aflame
About the weather we always talk
Grin and bear it just walk the walk

It's a dog day afternoon for sure
Soak it up man there ain't no cure
It's a dog day afternoon

Its a dog day afternoon 
What do you know dude
I just love a sweltering interlude
Resurrected and in a jovial mood
It's a dog day afternoon
