Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The taxman's taking 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 everything I've got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon
[Verse 2]
Oh, save me, save me, save me from his squeeze
Oh, I got a big, fat mama tryna break me
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
My boyfriend's run off with my car
And gone back to his ma and pa
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sitting here
Sipping on my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
[Verse 5]
Oh, help me, help me, help me sail away
Well, you give me two good reasons why I outta stay
[Verse 6]
'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
[Verse 7]
Oh, save me, save me, save me from his squeeze
Oh, I got a big, fat mama tryna break me
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
[Verse 10]
Oh, in the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
