The taxman's taken 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 ev'rything I've got;
all I've got's this sunny afternoon
Save me
save me
save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tyin' to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
live this life of luxury:
lazing on a sunny afternoon
in Summertime
in summertime
in summertime
My girlfriend's run off with my car
and gone back to her ma and pa
telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sitting here
sipping at my icecold beer
lazing on a sunny afternoon
Help me
help me
help me sail away
you give me two good reasons why I ought to stay
'Cos I love to live so pleasantly
live this life of luxury:
lazing on a sunny afternoon
in Summertime
in summertime
in summertime
and left me in my stately home
lazing on a sunny afternoon
And I can't sail my yacht
he's taken ev'rything I've got;
all I've got's this sunny afternoon
Save me
save me
save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tyin' to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
live this life of luxury:
lazing on a sunny afternoon
in Summertime
in summertime
in summertime
My girlfriend's run off with my car
and gone back to her ma and pa
telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sitting here
sipping at my icecold beer
lazing on a sunny afternoon
Help me
help me
help me sail away
you give me two good reasons why I ought to stay
'Cos I love to live so pleasantly
live this life of luxury:
lazing on a sunny afternoon
in Summertime
in summertime
in summertime
