Lyrics

[Intro]
We're on the highway for diggin' Sunday afternoon
(Doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo)
[Verse 1]
Roll up the highway, we're headin' for a Sunday afternoon
Plenty of sunshine lightin' the way for lovely things to do
Takin' our own sweet time, startin' out easy and slow
We're on the highway for diggin' Sunday afternoon
[Verse 2]
Plenty of people stretchin' their legs out, shiftin' into gear
Travellin' roads with curious faces starin' back at you
Takin' our own sweet time, movin' up easy and slow
We're on the highway for diggin' Sunday afternoon
[Bridge]
Have you been floating with your dream?
Taking turns you have never seen
Do you want to go?
Do you want to go?
[Verse 3]
Thinkin' 'bout people, tastin' the sweetness, livin' to the full
Thinkin' 'bout children, laughin' and singin', takin' us to school
Takin' our own sweet time, growin' up easy and slow
We're on the highway for diggin' Sunday afternoon
[Instrumental]
Goin' far in a motorcar
Learnin' 'bout who and where we are
Wavin' to a friend
Smilin' back again
[Verse 4]
Thinkin' 'bout people, tastin' the sweetness, livin' to the full
Thinkin' 'bout children, laughin' and singin', takin' us to school
Takin' our own sweet time, growin' up easy and slow
We're on the highway for diggin' Sunday afternoon
[Bridge]
Wavin' to a friend
Smilin' back again
[Outro]
We're on the highway for diggin' Sunday afternoon
