In the Summertime Lyrics

[00:18.52] In the summertime when the weather is hot
[00:21.40] You can stretch right up and touch the sky
[00:24.44] When the weather's fine
[00:25.86] You got women, you got women on your mind
[00:30.24] Have a drink, have a drive
[00:32.09] Go out and see what you can find
[00:36.13] If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal
[00:38.62] If her daddy's poor, just do what you feel
[00:41.75] Speed along the lane
[00:43.41] Do a ton or a ton and twenty-five
[00:47.79] When the sun goes down
[00:49.08] You can make it, make it good and really fine
[00:53.53] We're no threat people
[00:55.14] We're not dirty, we're not mean
[00:56.32] We love everybody, but we do as we please
[00:59.41] When the weather's fine
[01:01.10] We go fishing or go swimming in the sea
[01:05.42] We're always happy
[01:06.73] Life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy
[01:11.18] Sing along with us, dee-dee dee-dee dee
[01:13.95] Da doo da-da da, yeah, we're hap-pap-py
[01:17.03] Da da da, dee da doo dee da doo da doo da
[01:22.63] Da doo da-da da, dee da da dee da da
[01:45.68] When the winter's here, yeah, it's party time
[01:48.50] Bring your bottle, wear your bright clothes
[01:50.00] 'Cause it will soon be summertime
[01:51.34] And we'll sing again
[01:52.97] We'll go driving or maybe we'll settle down
[01:57.37] If she's rich, if she's nice
[01:58.90] Bring your friends and we'll all go into town
[02:24.33] In the summertime when the weather is hot
[02:27.38] You can stretch right up and touch the sky
[02:30.49] When the weather's fine
[02:31.66] You got women, you got women on your mind
[02:36.04] Have a drink, have a drive
[02:37.93] Go out and see what you can find
[02:42.05] If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal
[02:44.88] If her daddy's poor, just do what you feel
[02:47.65] Speed along the lane
[02:49.29] Do a ton or a ton and twenty-five
[02:53.69] When the sun goes down
[02:54.83] You can make it, make it good and really fine
[02:59.27] We're no threat people
[03:00.80] We're not dirty, we're not mean
[03:02.07] We love everybody, but we do as we please
[03:05.29] When the weather's fine
[03:06.42] We go fishing or go swimming in the sea
