    "Love In The Hot Afternoon" by Mark Chesnutt



    From somewhere outside I hear the street vendor cry file' gumbo
    Through my window I see him going down the street and he don't know
    That she fell right to sleep in the damp
    Tangled sheet so soon
    After love in the hot afternoon

    Now the bourbon street lady sleeps like a baby in the shadows
    She was new to me and fully of mystery but now I know
    That she's just a girl and I'm just a guy in the room
    For love in the hot afternoon

    We got high in the park this morning and we sat without talking
    Then we came back here in the heat of the day tired of walking
    Where under her breathe she hummed to herself a tune
    Of love in the hot afternoon

    Now the bourbon street lady sleeps like a baby in the shadows
    She was new to me and fully of mystery but now I know
    That she's just a girl and I'm just a guy in the room
    For love in the hot afternoon

    Any time. Sorry about your Dad. Gotta hang on to those memories. Well, I guess that was it.

    Are you absolutely positive it wasn't this one:

    "Love in the Hot Afternoon" by Gene Watson - pretty big hit for it's time

    From somewhere outside, I hear a
    Street vendor cry "filet gumbo"
    From my window I see him, going
    Down the street and he don't know
    That we fell right to sleep
    In the damp tangled sheets so soon
    After love in the hot afternoon

    Now the bourbon street lady,
    sleeps like a baby in the shadows
    (in the shadows)
    She was new to me, full of mystery,
    But now I know (but know I know)
    That she's just a girl,
    And I'm just a guy, in a room
    Full of love in the hot afternoon

    We got high in the park,
    This morning and we sat, without talkin'
    Then she came back here,
    In the heat of the day, tired of walkin'
    Where under her breath,
    She hummed to herself a tune
    Of Love in the hot afternoon

    Yea, I kind of figured it might be this one. Well, I'm really glad you got what you were looking for! Now, about living in the arctic; are you out of your mind?

    I know how that is; I lived near Seattle centuries ago. Beautiful area. I had a new jeep when St. Helens blew her top and the acidic ash turned my shiny red jeep into something that looked like one of those Mel Gibson "the world has ended" type movies.
