Songtexte

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 everythin' I've got

All I've got's this sunny afternoon

Save me, save me

Save me from this squeeze

I've got a big fat momma tryin' 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 cold 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

Oh, save me, save me

Save me from this squeeze

I've got a big fat momma tryin' 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
