The black dog is shining
The prize lying just out of sight
It's 200 miles to the nearest bridge, friend
So we'll cross this river tonight
We stripped to our waist
Put clothes in a black plastic bag
Entered the river in the dead of night
Gave in to that old river's drag
Oh, summers in Bury
The night time swims and the beers we got in
A lifetime of memories
Oh, summers in Bury
The night time swims and the beers we got in
A lifetime of memories
Brothers in arms
Living our dreams without end
Grew up together in the summer nights
I'll forever be Simon's friend
Oh, summers in Bury
The night time swims and the beers we got in
A lifetime of memories
Oh, summers in Bury
The night time swims and the beers we got in
A lifetime of memories
