Jimmy Buffett - Sunny Afternoon lyrics
[Jimmy Buffett - Sunny Afternoon lyrics]
The taxman's taken all my dough and
Left me in this stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
And I can't even sail my yacht
He's taken everything I've got
All I got's this sunny afternoon
In the summertime
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I got a big bad mama trying to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
My girlfriend's run off with my car and
Gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of parrotheads and parties
And now I'm just sitting here
Sipping on this ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
Help me, help me, help me sail away
Well, give me two good reasons
Why I ought to stay
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime in the summertime
In the summertime
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I got a big fat mama trying to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
Taxman's taken all my dough
In the summertime
Gonna find that passport and out
Of here I'll go in the summertime
Catch me a flight to St somewhere
Get out of this nowhere
Go somewhere where nobody knows my name
Gotta keep my mouth shut
Try to go to confession at least once a week
In the summertime
Somewhere south of the equator, I believe
Where it's summertime
Where winter spends the summer
Somewhere like that in the summertime
Left me in this stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
And I can't even sail my yacht
He's taken everything I've got
All I got's this sunny afternoon
In the summertime
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I got a big bad mama trying to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
My girlfriend's run off with my car and
Gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of parrotheads and parties
And now I'm just sitting here
Sipping on this ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
Help me, help me, help me sail away
Well, give me two good reasons
Why I ought to stay
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime in the summertime
In the summertime
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I got a big fat mama trying to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
Taxman's taken all my dough
In the summertime
Gonna find that passport and out
Of here I'll go in the summertime
Catch me a flight to St somewhere
Get out of this nowhere
Go somewhere where nobody knows my name
Gotta keep my mouth shut
Try to go to confession at least once a week
In the summertime
Somewhere south of the equator, I believe
Where it's summertime
Where winter spends the summer
Somewhere like that in the summertime
