Summer Readin’ [set to Summer Nights]
Click the Play Button Above and Sing Along!
[Verse 1]
Summer readin’, will be a blast
Summer readin’, it’s here at last
I found a novel perfect for me
Summer days reading away
And, uh oh, through the night
[Chorus]
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh!
Read some more, read some more
Really making me think
Read some more, read some more
[Verse 2]
“Bookish Beasts,” it’s this year’s theme
Read for prizes, book lover’s dream
Fun activities for me to do
And events to look forward to
Summer sun, reading is fun
But, uh oh, reading at night
[Chorus]
Well-a, well-a, well-a, uh!
Read some more, read some more
How many minutes a day?
Read some more, read some more
Thirty gets you all the way
[Verse 3]
Danielle Steel, pulp is her thing,
He likes horror, loves Stephen King
Tried to get her to read Hemingway
Thought he’d like Don Quixote
Summer reading filled with meaning
But, uh oh, all reading’s right
[Chorus]
Woah, woah, woah
Tell me more, tell me more
How will I ever keep track?
Tell me more, tell me more
[All]
Read-a-good book
Read-a-good book
Read-a-good book
Read-a-good book
Read-a-good book
Read-a-good book
Read-a-good book
Yeah
[Verse 4]
We could find some books we can share,
A teen series? Books of Elsewhere?
Try an epic? Something by Proust?
Or a thriller? Where Ravens Roost?
Summer heat, reading is neat
But, uh oh, read through the night
[Chorus]
Woah, woah, woah
Tell me more, tell me more
Is it borrow or lend?
Tell me more, tell me more
Can I sign up my friend?
[Bridge]
He got friendly, lent me Wasteland
She got friendly, attempted “The Stand”
He was sweet, showed me Beanstack
I prefer paper to track
Summer reading sunshine is fleeting
But, uh oh, those reading nights

This is wonderful! Thank you for creating this fun! And yes like Gustav, I sang the words along too. Good thing no one was recording though because likely off-key. LOL!
Incredible! I sang along through the whole thing.
