Skeeter Davis - Singin' In The Summer Sun

CINDY WALKER - one of the best country music songwriters


SINGIN' IN THE SUMMER SUN (1965)
(Cindy Walker)

Singin' in the summer sun singin' songs of love
In a picture postcard world under warm blue skies above
Building castles in the sand running barefoot hand in hand
By the shining shining sea deep as the love we pledge faithfully

Singin' with the phonegraph by the driftwood fire
Cryin' when we said goodbye under misty summer stars
Summer's gone like all my dreams that faded one by one
Still it's sweet remembering singing in the summer sun

[ clarinet ]
Summer's gone like all my dreams that faded one by one
Still it's sweet remembering singing in the summer sun
Summer's gone like all my dreams that faded one by one
Still it's sweet remembering singing in the summer sun

Is the sultry picture here of Cindy Walker?  It looks nothing like Skeeter - just curious. This is a fun song which I had never heard before. Kind of rag time which is a great sound. We do miss Skeeter. Thanks for posting. - Paula

Another Song Sung By The Great Skeeter Davis i have never heard of.

Thanks for this.

This Lovely Lady is Very Sadly Missed and will never Be Another with a Heart Warming Voice like she had.

I wonder why no one has posted Skeeter's "Cloudy with Occasional Tears." I remember that album and that song when it first came out and I was in Nashville waiting to run into Skeeter outside the RCA studio. But she was very shy and not really the part of the raucus musin scene. God bless her spirit. Lovely voice.
