Sunny Afternoon

[Verse 1] The tax man’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 everything I’ve got All I’ve got’s this sunny afternoon [Chorus 1] Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze I got a big fat mama trying 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 [Verse 2] 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 ice cold beer Lazing on a sunny afternoon [Chorus 2] Help me, help me, help me sail away Well give me two good reasons why I oughta stay ’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 [Chorus 3] Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze I got a big fat mama trying 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 [End] [Drum Interlude] [Saxphone Solo] [Outro] Lazing on a sunny afternoon In the summer time [End]
