Cold Chill

Stevie Wonder

Feelin' young and full of fun 
Hangin' out with my crew 
Hot to trot and about to pop 
Tryin' to find some girl to get into 

There she was fine as can be 
Hair braided down to her knees 
She took me home, she turned me out 
But before sunrise she said I must leave 

It was a cold chill on a summer night 
Never thought the girlie wouldn't treat me right 
It was a cold chill on a summer day 
Never thought the girl would dog me out that way 
It was a cold chill on a summer morn 
Never cried like a baby since the day I was born 
It was a cold chill on a summer eve 
Never had no chopper bring me to my knees 

I was feeling so trusting 
Gave it all right down to the bone 
But she did me wrong 
On a summer night 

Far from meek, and feelin' chic 
Refusing to concede defeat 
There I was same crew, same time 
Same club we kicked it at the previous week 

I asked her how could she have the nerve 
To treat me with such disgrace 
She blinked her eyes, smiled, apologized 
Threw her drink right in my face 

It was a cold chill on a summer night 
Never thought the girlie wouldn't treat me right 
It was a cold chill on a summer day 
Never thought the girl would dog me out that way 
It was a cold chill on a summer morn 
Never cried like a baby since the day I was born 
It was a cold chill on a summer eve 
Never had no chopper bring me to my knees 

I was feeling so trusting 
Gave it all right down to the bone 
But she did me wrong 
On a summer night, on a summer night 
On a summer night, on a summer night 
A cold chill, a cold chill, a cold chill, cold chill 

Weekends came and weekends passed 
But not the yearning in my heart 
And there she was to light the spark 
Like she did right from the very start 

I took no time, drove to her house 
Got deep into a passion high 
I heard a knock, the turn of a key 
And the voice of another guy 

It was a cold chill on a summer night 
Never thought the girlie wouldn't treat me right 
It was a cold chill on a summer day 
Never thought the girl would dog me out that way 
It was a cold chill on a summer morn 
Never cried like a baby since the day I was born 
It was a cold chill on a summer eve 
Never had no chopper bring me to my knees 

I was feeling so trusting 
Gave it all right down to the bone 
But she did me wrong 
On a summer night, on a summer night 
On a summer night, on a summer night 

It was a cold chill 
Like standing in the deep freeze 
A cold chill 
Like when snow's above your knees 
Cold chill 
Like sitting at the north pole 
A cold chill 
Wearing not one stitch of clothes 
Cold chill 
Like a winter Chicago night 
A cold chill 
Twenty ice cubes down your back for spite 
Cold chill 
Stranded in sub-zero degrees 
A cold chill 
Laid out on the arctic sea 
Cold chill 
When your fingers get frost bite 
A cold chill 
Buried beneath ten feet of ice 
Cold chill 
Baby, that ain't so nice 
A cold chill
