Lyrics In The Summertime - The Idle Race

In the Summer time when the weather is high
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's fine
You got women, you got women on your mind
Have a drink, have a drive, go and see what you can find

If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal
If her daddy's poor just do what you feel (!)
Swim along the lane, go to town on eternal twenty five
When the sun goes down, you can make it, make it good and really fine

With her bare feet, will her daddy we'll amaze
We love everybody, but we do as we please
When the weathers fine, we go fishing or go swimming in the sea
We're always happy, life's for living and that's our philosophy

Sing along with us
Dee'n, dee, dee, dee
Da'n, da, da, da
Yeah we're ha-ha-ppy
Dah, dah (etc. etc. etc!)

When the Winter's here, yeah it's party time
Bring your bottles wear your rattles it'll soon be Summertime
And we'll see again, we'll go driving or maybe we'll settle down
If she's free sure she's nice, bring your friends and we'll all go into town

Sing along with us
Dee'n, dee, dee, dee
Da'n, da, da, da
Yeah we're ha-ha-ppy
