Verse 1

I just realized I left my favorite hat at the club last night

 Which sickened me right off 'cause I

Had that cap since real-real small

Then find out just right now

 That my main squeeze went through my phone

Oooo

So I guess I'm single now

Imagine that

Verse 2

So I sneak right on The T

The conductor sees me

He's kicking me right off with a frown

I grab my bag and I walk on

Comm. Ave., I hit up Blanchard's

They sell cheap wine, I got six bucks

Bag rip, wine smash

Drink it up avoid the glass

Chorus

But I can't stop from just smiling

 When that damn sun is shining on

Hell, It's just

Shining down all over me

No, I can't help but just smile

 While that damn sun is shining on

 Dang it's just shining down

Down over me

Verse 3

So now I call up my friend

'Cause his girl must be bored, 'cause

She's been spreading rumors about me

That I robbed her party, but I never had

I pull out my little disc man

I bought from a crackhead down in Reno

But my Melt-Ba-na-na CD

Is all scratched up

Chorus 2

I think it's stupid all the people who are moaning

Yeah moaning on

While the sun is shining down

On our city streets

Even all the things people say

Naw, ain't affecting me

Not when that damn sun

Is shining down over me

Bridge

Shining down on me

Born to just never care [x3]

 About the stupid things

 People moan everyday

Verse 4

So later on I meet Johnny Trouble

At a bar called Shay's, a spit from Charlie's

We sit outside talking 'bout girls

How they're loons but we like them anyway

No money for pints at the bar

We bring a backpack full of Pabst

Oooo

Under the table we fill our glass

Chorus 3

So me and Johnny just sit outside

Warmed by that summer night

While those city stars are shining

Down on our streets

And I can't help from just smiling

While those damn stars are shining down

Yeah those stars are shining

Over our city streets

Chorus 4

No, I won't be caught moaning

Not when light is still shining down

And me and Johnny

Warmed by that damn summer heat

And I can't stop from just smiling

When those damn stars are shining on

Yeah, those stars are shining

Over our city streets

 Can you imagine that?
