When the sun's still beating down September Can't touch your toes to the pavement in the afternoon Swinging out front, wondering whether Sins of the summer gonna come Catch up with you soon Never knew no dirt didn't come off in the kitchen Never knew no stain like the one you're hiding now Never knew no man like the one you been missing Never knew no love could break love's vow Fan my face but the moving just makes me hotter Try to sit still as the creek down the way That dry bed ain't seen no fresh water Spent the last two months drying out without the rain
Never knew no dirt didn't come off in the kitchen Never knew no stain like the one I'm hiding now Never knew no man like the one I been missing Never knew no love could break love's vow Can't go back to the water's edge Ain't no water... Can't return to his arms Ain't no water... Can't go dip beneath the gla** surface Ain't no water... Can't dry off in the summer sun Never knew no dirt didn't come off in the kitchen Never knew no stain like the one I'm hiding now Never knew no man like the one I been missing Never knew no love could break love's vow
