In the summertime, when the weather is high
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When that 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, you just do what you feel
Speed along the lane, do a ton or a ton and 25
When the sun goes down, you can make it make it good in a lay-by
We're not bad people, we're not dirty, we're not mean
We love everybody, but we do as we please
When that weather's fine, we go fishin or go swimmin in the sea
We always happy, life for living
Yeah, that's our philosophy
Sing along with us
Dee-dee-dee, dee-dee
Dah-do-dah, dah-dah
Yeah we're hap-happy
Dah dah-dah
Dee-dah-do, dee-dah-do, dee-do-dah
Dah-do, dah-dah-dee-dah
Dee-dee-dee-do-dah, dee-dee-dah
All right, all right, all right, whoo!
Now 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 all go into town
Motor solo
Whoo! In the summertime, when the weather is high
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When that weather's fine
You got women, you got women on your mind, I sure do
Have a drink, have a drive
Go out and see what you can find
