Summer turns the stove on

And fun begins to cook

Barefoot walks in Baltimore

Laugh at sizzling sidewalks

Don't step on the cracks

Old folks try to catch their breath

As children catch their jacks

Baltimore is music

Dancing in the street

Half-chewed Dubble Bubble

Tugging at our feet

Melted tar in crosswalks

Crab shells in the park

Pavement frying our poor toes

Until long after dark
