| The tax man's taken all my dough,
|
| And left me in my stately home,
|
| Lazing on a sunny afternoon
|
| And I can't sail my yacht,
|
| He's taken everything I've got,
|
| All I've got's this sunny afternoon
|
| Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
|
| I got a big fat mama trying to break me
|
| And I love to live so pleasantly,
|
| Live this life of luxury,
|
| Lazing on a sunny afternoon
|
| In the summertime
|
| In the summertime
|
| In the summertime
|
| My girlfriend's run off with my car,
|
| And gone back to her ma and pa,
|
| Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
|
| Now I'm sitting here,
|
| Sipping at my ice cool beer,
|
| Lazing on a sunny afternoon
|
| Help me, help me, help me sail away,
|
| Well give me two good reasons why I oughta stay
|
| 'Cause I love to live so pleasantly,
|
| Live this life of luxury,
|
| Lazing on a sunny afternoon
|
| In the summertime
|
| In the summertime
|
| In the summertime
|
| Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
|
| I got a big fat mama trying to break me
|
| And I love to live so pleasantly,
|
| Live this life of luxury,
|
| Lazing on a sunny afternoon
|
| In the summertime
|
| In the summertime
|
| In the summertime |
