lyrics

It’s 80 degrees but you could’ve fooled me
sweat's curling up my hair
And it’s all thanks to this southern humidity
You could use a knife to cut up the air

Move along (move along)
Till the work is done
There’s nowhere else I’d rather be
Than sweating away my summer days
In this old dominion humidity

Cicadas chirp that classic song
My glasses are as foggy as the dew (good mountain dew)
The sun’s beating down on my old home town
Boiling the river into stew

Move along (move along)
Till the work is done
There’s nowhere else I’d rather be
Than sweating away my summer days
In this old dominion humidity

Shed all the layers you please
Don’t be afraid to show off your knees
Do what you’ve gotta do
To keep that humidity from getting to you

The sun’s going down and you hope the heat does too
Or maybe for a nice cool breeze
But there’s a reason we call her Virginia
Because she’s a hot-blooded tease

Move along (move along)
Till the work is done
There’s nowhere else I’d rather be
Than sweating away my summer days
In this old dominion humidity

Unbelievably, the two are not related, though their voices are almost indistinguishable from each other. These brother harmonies lead Sweet Petunia through many shifting genres, melding traditional folk sensibilities with a distinct punk flare. ... more
