From the recording 99 Degrees
Lyrics
Well, it’s 99 degrees in the shade and I’m walking down an old dirt road so good to feel the sun on my face oh Lord, almost home
Morning coffee burning on the stove she’ll get tired of waking up alone and move o soon I know
I’ll never cross her mind at all
I was feeling like an empty suit
guess that’s just what happens when you choose to dream small
turn around and you don’t have friend to call
It’s 99 degrees in the shade and I’m walking down an old dirt road so good to feel the sun on my face oh, Lord almost home
I’ll cool my body in the deepest blue sea oh the heat don’t bother me
I was freezing on those city streets
chasing someone else’s hopes and dreams, not mine while my soul was waiting in the sweet sunshine
And it’s 99 degrees in the shade and I’m walking down an old dirt road so good to feel the sun on my face oh, Lord oh, Lord
almost home almost home almost home almost (Repeat)
99 degrees in the shade and I’m walking down an old dirt road so good to feel the sun on my face oh, lord almost home
