Friends and dark nights in Northport

Pullin' up in the drive and hearin' voices
  Smilin' at the recognition of friends laughter
Openin' up the car door and breathe in the energy
  Steppin' out and greetin' them with hugs.

That's how summer nights aught to be in Northport!

Walkin' through the front door as the smells hit you in the face
  Split wood,body sweat, and chili on the stove.
Hearin' the good old music comin' from the livin' room
  And crys from the back bedroom of the little ones.

That's how summer nights aught to be in Northport!

Stumps for cairs around a fire pit and wire skewers for the hotdogs
  Mayonaise and mustard and hotdog buns on the table
Marshmellows being thrown throught the air,
  Dog fights and dogpiles and wrestling in the dirt.

That's how summer night are in Northport!

Watchin' the sparks flyin' from the flames
  Floatin' up to disappear among the stars.
Pretty faces and sexy girls across the fire and on my lap
  Bros and brothers causin' me to die laughin'.

That's how summer night are in Northport!

Talkin' about our past and tellin' stories not to be repeated,
  makin' laughs and serious moments with smors in our hands.
Walkin' through the town at midnight frightenin' our shadows,
Doin' push-ups in the street and cross dressin' on corners.

That's how suumer nights are in Northport!

Runnin' and screamin' durin' "ninja tag" Who'll be the next one "it" ?
  Jumpin' into the fridged water of the river and comin' out yellin'
Holdin' onto each other for warmth and more hugs,
  Keep everyone close and makin' more memories and stories to tell.

That's a summer's night in Northport!
