The tax mans taken all my dough,<br>
And left me in my stately home,<br>
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.<br>
And I cant sail my yacht,<br>
Hes taken everything Ive got,<br>
All Ive gots this sunny afternoon.<br>
<br>
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.<br>
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.<br>
And I love to live so pleasantly,<br>
Live this life of luxury,<br>
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.<br>
In the summertime<br>
In the summertime<br>
In the summertime<br>
<br>
My girlfriends run off with my car,<br>
And gone back to her ma and pa,<br>
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty.<br>
Now Im sitting here,<br>
Sipping at my ice cold beer,<br>
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.<br>
<br>
Help me, help me, help me sail away,<br>
Well give me two good reasons why I oughta stay.<br>
cause I love to live so pleasantly,<br>
Live this life of luxury,<br>
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.<br>
In the summertime<br>
In the summertime<br>
In the summertime<br>
<br>
Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.<br>
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.<br>
And I love to live so pleasantly,<br>
Live this life of luxury,<br>
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.<br>
In the summertime<br>
In the summertime<br>
In the summertime<br>
