Lyrics

In the summertime, when the weather is high
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's high
You got women, you got women on your mind
Have a drink, have a drive
Go out 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
Speed along the lane, do a ton or a ton and twenty-five
When the sun goes down
You can make it, make it good in a lay-by
We're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean
We love everybody, but we do as we please
When the weather's fine, we go fishing or go swimming in the sea
We're always happy, life's for living
Yeah, that's our philosophy
Sing along with us
Dee-dee-dee, dee-dee
Dah-dah-dah, dah-dah
Yeah we're hap-happy
Dah dah-dah
Dee-dah-do, dee-dah-do, dah-do-dah
Yeah, dah-do, dah-dah-dah
Dah-dah-dah, do-dah-dah (Alright, alright, alright)
When the winter's here, yeah it's party time
Bring your bottle, wear your bright clothes
It'll soon be summertime
And we'll sing again, we'll go driving
Or maybe we'll settle down
If she's rich, if she's nice, bring your friends
And we'll all go into town
When the winter's here, yeah it's party time
Bring your bottle, wear your bright clothes
It'll soon be summertime
And we'll sing again, we'll go driving
Or maybe we'll settle down
If she's rich, if she's nice, bring your friends
And we'll all go into town
