Well, it sure feels good to come in here and just pull up a seat
A frosty mug of a cool one helps to beat the heat
These old dog days of summer, Lord, I'll be glad when they're gone
It's too hot to fish, too hot for golf, too cold at home.

Well, that baseball game on TV takes me back to when I was a kid
We proudly wore those uniforms just like the Dodgers did
Yeah, we won a few and lost a few and for me it still goes on
It's too hot to fish, too hot for golf and too cold at home.

Well, I only planned on one or two, and I might stay for three
If that good looking thing in the corner keeps smiling back at me
It's so easy not to care 'bout what's right or what's wrong
It's too hot to fish, too hot for golf, too cold at home.

Too hot to fish, too hot for golf and too cold at home...
