Lyrics Mungo Jerry

Mungo Jerry

In The Summertime

In the summertime when the weather is high

You can stretch right up and touch the sky

When the weather's fine

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 turn or return the twenty-five

When the sun goes down

You can make it, make it good and really fine

We're not bad 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

Da doo da-da da, yeah, we're hap-pap-py

Da da da, dee da doo dee da doo da doo da

Da doo da-da da, dee da da dee da da

When the winter's here, yeah, it's party time

Bring your bottle, wear your bright clothes

'cause it will 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

In the summertime when the weather is high

You can stretch right up and touch the sky

When the weather's fine

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 turn or return the twenty-five

When the sun goes down

You can make it, make it good and really fine

We're not bad 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

Da doo da-da da, yeah, we're hap-pap-py

Da da da, dee da doo dee da doo da doo da

Da doo da-da da, dee da da dee da da
