The archetypical summer song, 'In The Summertime' - by Mungo Jerry, 1970.
'Magic' by Pilot (don't know one year) was also quite summerlike

The '70s were a little easier. I'm thinking of these
Montego Bay -- Bobby Bloom
School's Out -- Alice Cooper
Midnight at the Oasis -- Maria Muldaur
In the Summertime -- Mungo Jerry (somebody already beat me to it)
Coconut -- Harry Nilsson
Mexico -- James Taylor
Dancing in the Moonlight -- King Harvest
Summer Madness -- Kool & the Gang (Sounds like a familiar summer song from the '90s? ??? )
Summer Breeze -- Seals and Crofts
Kodachrome -- Paul Simon
Summer -- War
Shaker Song -- Spyro Gyra
Morning Dance -- Spyro Gyra
Moonlight Feels Right -- Starbuck
Sealed with a Kiss -- Bobby Vinton

Throwing in...
'Beach Baby' - First Class (a blatant, but very effective, Beach Boys pastiche...)
'Seaside Shuffle' - Terry Dactyl & The Dinosaurs (a blatant rip-off of Mungo Jerry's hit, but successful nonetheless...)
'Summer (The First Time)' - Bobby Goldsboro (corny as they come, but highly enjoyable...)
