When the fall wind blows all the heat away
and the leaves pose for pictures at the end of the day
put on a friendly sweater and roll in her arms
for now is the best time for Cindy's charms
Train stopped rolling "˜bout 10 years ago
and my doors have been locked since I don't know
well change brings tears in my part of town
but summer's finally over and Cindy's around
chorus:
Summer's finally over and Cindy's around (2)
The ghost of coal miners walks through this town
and throw back a few when nobody's around
and dance to a fiddle that makes them cry
while all of "˜em try to catch Cindy's eye
(chorus)
