[Verse 1]
            C#9   F#7               G#7          F#7
Sure was a long,    long, long, hot summer night
C#9           D#9        G#7   F#7
  As far as my eyes could see (yeah, yeah, yeah)
         C#9              F#7
But my heart was way down
      G#7         G7
In a cold, cold winter storm
     F#7                  E     B
My darling, where can you be?
  A           F#7
Where can you be, baby?
  B5           C#5
Where can you be?
C#5 B5 E
 
 
[Verse 2]
                 C#9        F#7
There were three sugar walls and-a two candy cane windows
  G#7           F#7
(Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop)
         C#9               D#9                 G#7           F#7
But the serious moon melted all those in sight (all those in sight)
                 C#9          F#7          G#7           G7
Everybody's on fire but I'm a snowing in a cold blizzard
 F#7
Where are you on this-a hot cold summer?
 F#7
Where are you on this-a hot cold summer?
  F#7                                     E       B
Where are you on this-a hot cold summer night?

[Verse 3]
G#7                                                               F#7
Around about this time the telephone blew its horn across the room
G#7                                                          F#7
Scared little Annie clean out of her mind, clean out of her mind
G#7                                                     F#7
Roman the Candle, he peeps out of his peekaboo hide and seek
G#7                                                B
And grabbed little Annie from the ceiling just in time
C#9         F#7               C#7     F#7     G#7    A#7
   And the telephone keeps on screaming
D#9     G#7    A#7      G#7
             Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
D#9     G#7    A#
 
[Verse 4]
D#9          G#7            A#7                G#7
Hello, says my shaky voice, well, how are you doing
D#9         F9
I start to stutter
    A#7            G#7
Ah, can't you tell I'm doing fine
           D#9                  G#7               A#7      A7
It was my baby talking, she's way down across the border
           G#7
She says, I'm going to hurry to you, I've been a fool
          F#       C#
And I'm tired of crying
B      G#7
C#      D#
 
 
[Verse 5]
D#9          G#7            A#7                G#7
Yeah, a long, long, long, hot summer night
D#9         F9               A#7            G#7
As far as my eyes could see (as far, as far as I could see)
          D#9                  G#7               A#7          A7
But I can feel the heat coming on as my baby's getting closer
        G#7
I'm so glad that my baby's coming to rescue me
        G#7
So glad that my baby's coming to rescue me
        G#7
So glad my baby's coming to rescue me
        G#7
Rescue, rescue, rescue
        G#7
Rescue, rescue
        G#7
Rescue, rescue, what'd I say
        G#7
Rescue me, rescue me
        G#7
Rescue, rescue me, rescue me
        G#7
Rescue
              Show us a long
Long, long hot summer night
As far as my eyes could see
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, my heart was way down
Cold, cold winter stone
Well my darlin', where can you be?
Where can you be, baby?
Where can you be?

There were three sugar walls
And two candy cane windows
But the silliest move melted all those inside
Well, everybody's on fire, but it's
A-snowin' in a cold blizzard

Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
Where are you in this a-hot cold summer?
God, God, God

Around about this time the telephone
Blew its horn across the room
Scared little Annie
Clean out of her mind
Out of her mind

Roman the Candle he peeps out of his peekaboo hide and seek
And grabbed little Annie from the ceiling just in time
And the telephone keeps on screamin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

"Hello", said my shakey voice, "well, how you doin'?"
I start to stutter
"ah, can't cha tell I'm a-doin' fine?"
There was my baby talkin', she's way down 'cross the border

She says, "I'm gonna hurry to ya I've been a fool
And I'm tired of cryin'"
Said I'm tired of cryin'

Yeah a long, long, long hot summer night
As far as my eyes could see
But I can ah feel the heat comin' on as my baby's gettin' closer

I'm so glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
So glad that my baby's comin' to rescue me
So glad my baby's comin' to rescue me
Rescue, rescue, rescue
Rescue, rescue
Rescue, rescue, what'd I say
Rescue me, rescue me
Rescue, rescue me, rescue me
Rescue
