In the Summertime - Mungo Jerry

In the summertime when the weather is high,

you can stretch right up an' touch the sky

when the weather's fine, you got women, you got women on your mind...

have a drink, have a drive, go out an' see what you can find.....

 

If her dad is rich, take her out for a meal,

if her dad is poor, just do what you feel

speed along the lane, you go down or return at twenty five

when the sun goes down, you can make it,

make it good an' really fine....

 

We're not bad people, we're not dirty, we're not mean,

we love ev'rybody, but we do as we please

when the weather's fine, we go fishin' or go sailin' in the sea,...

we're always happy, life's fer livin', yeah that's our philosophy...

 

Sing along with us, deedeedeedeedee

dadadadada yeah we're haphappy

dadadaa didadudidududadadaa...(yeah!)

dadoodadada dadadadooda

 

When the winter's here, yeah it's party time

bring a bottle, wear yer rackles, it'll soon be summertime

an' we'll sing again, we'll go drivin' or maybe we'll settle down...

if she's rich, if she's nice, bring your friends

an' we'll all go into town....
