In The Summertime - Original - Ken Boothe

In the summer time when the weather is high

You can chase 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.

Scoot along the lake, do a town an' then return her twenty five.

When the sun goes down

You can make it, make it good and really fine.

With a fat beat, when her Daddy with a me,

We’ll have 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,

Long’s we’re living in this sound philosophy.

Sing along with us, dee dee dee dee dee

Da da da da da, yeah we’re hap-pap-py.

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

Da da da da da, dee da da dee da da.

When the wind is here, yeah it’s party time,

Bring your bottle waggin' back, 'cuz it will soon be summer time.

And we’ll signal a cab, 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.
