Tom Jones - Sunny Afternoon

Words and music by Raymond Davies

In the summertime

The taxmans taken all my dough

And left me in my stately home

Lazing on a sunny afternoon

And I cant sail my yacht

Hes taken everything Ive got

All Ive gots this sunny afternoon

Save me, from this squeeze

Ive got a big fat momma tryin to break me

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 (everything seems fine)

My girlfriends gone off with my car

And gone back to her ma and pa

Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty

And now Im sitting here

Sipping on my ice cold beer

Lazing on a sunny afternoon

Help me, sail away

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 the summertime

Everything is fine because its the summertime

In the summertime

(I dont care about a doggone thing)

in the summertime

(Im broke, Ive skint, but its the summertime)

In the summertime

(even though I aint got a dime, in the summertime, I dont have a dime)

In the summertime

(I just got this ice cold beer, everything seems fine)

In the summertime

(Nothing seems to matter)
