Lyrics
Bacardi haze, my reckless phase
Lazy summer vacation
I met a girl hot as the sun
Started up a flirtation
One restless night down by the lake
She turned me on like a lighter flame
She had dark brown hair, sparkling eyes
By the hot bonfire in the starry night
I kissed her lips, we lost control
So we took that night
And burned it to charcoal
We burned it to charcoal
I woke up broke, smelling of smoke
Nothing left of our twelvepack
Her wicked grin reeled me back in
Rolling in my Slumberjack
Then night after night down by the lake
We kept rockin till the sky turned grey
She had dark brown hair, sparkling eyes
By the hot bonfire in the starry night
I kissed her lips, we lost control
So we took those nights
And burned them to charcoal
Yeah, time keeps moving on, too fast to stop
But, hey, we drank that summer down, every last drop
She had dark brown hair, sparkling eyes
By the hot bonfire in the starry night
I kissed her lips, we lost control
So we took that summer (ooo)
She had dark brown hair, sparkling eyes
By the hot bonfire in the starry night
The flames died down, the wind blew cold
But we had one summer
And we burned it to charcoal
(Live it up, rock and roll)
(Hold her tight, let her go)
We burned it to charcoal
(Live it up, rock and roll)
(Hold her tight, let her go)
We burned it to charcoal
