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 daddy his to trying to break me.
And I love to live of luxury,
Live this life so pleasantly,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
My boyfriend's run off with my car,
His gone back to his ma and pa,
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty.
Now I'm sitting here,
Sipping at my icecold 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 daddy his to 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.
