In the summertime when the weather is high, 
       
you can stretch right up and touch the sky,
         Bb
when the weather is fine, 
                                      F
you got women, you got women on your mind.
        C7
Have a drink, have a drive, 
Bb                           F
go out and see what you can find.


        F
If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal.

If her daddy's poor, just do as you feel.
        Bb
Speed along the land, 
                               F
do a ton, or a ton and twenty-five.
         C7
When the sun goes down, you can make it, 
         Bb           F
make it good in a lay-by.


           F
We're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean.

We love everybody, but we do as we think.
          Bb
When the weather is fine 
                                     F
we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.
                 C7
We're are always happy, 
           Bb                               F
live's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy.

      Bb
da-da-da-da-dah.

When the winter's here, then it's party time.
