Heat wave, the only place to get cool is under the spray from a fire hydrant or and old shade tree.

Lyrics

110 by Arthur Sherry
copyright 2008


Kids playing in the hydrant.
Breaking all the rules.
Dad's working it the alley,
Lays down his tools.
It's too hot for working, no way to stay cool.
Sweltering days of Summer,
I want to drift in a pool.
110 in the City....

Sun's blisters up the pavement.
Shimmering heat.
We run into the water, kick it with our feet.
No body it swaying, to music that's playing.
Old songs on the radio are gonna help me drift away
...... today,
110 in the city....


We walk down by the river, the fisherman there.
Caught nothing since the weekend, we just sit and stare.
It's too hot for moving: it's too hot to play.
Find an old shade tree and while away the day.

Mom hollers from the alley,
Stacylynn, you got any ice?
Find a vendor making snow cones.
lime would be nice.
It's too hot for touching, our fingertips dance.
I want to go swimming, I'd like to go swimming,
Can we go swimming when we have the chance.
110 in the city....

Kids playing in the Hydrant,
Trying to stay cool.
