96 degrees in the shade
Real hot, in the shade
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot (oh yes) in the shade
Said it was 96 degrees, in the shade
Ten thousand soldiers on parade
Taking I and I to meet a big fat boy
Sent from overseas, the queen employ
Excellency, before you I come
With my representation
You know where I'm coming from
You caught me on the loose
Fighting to be free
Now you show me a noose
On the cotton tree
Entertainment for you
Martyrdom for me
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot (ooh yes) in the shade
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot (oh yes) in the shade
Some may suffer and some may burn
But I know that one day
My people will learn
As sure as the sun shines
Way up in the sky
Today I stand here a victim
The truth is I'll never die
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot, in the shade
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot (oh yes) in the shade
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot, in the shade
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot in the shade
Watching the shade now
96 degrees in the shade
Real hot (oh yes) in the shade
96 degrees in the shade.
