Cathy Dennis - Sunny Afternoon lyrics

The tax man's taken all my dough

And left me in my stately home

Lazing on a sunny afternoon

And I can't sail my yacht

He's taken everything I've got

All I've got this sunny afternoon

Save me save me save me from this squeeze

I got a big fat momma tryin' a break me

And I love to live so pleasantly

Live this life of luxury

Lazing on a sunny afternoon

In the summer time

In the summer time

In the summer time

My boyfriend's run off with my car

And gone back to his ma and pa

Telling tales of drunkeness and cruelty

Now I'm sitting here

Sipping at my ice cold beer

Lazing on the sunny afternoon

Help me help me help me sail away

Oh give me two good reasons

Why I oughta stay

Cos I loe to live so pleasantly

Live this life of luxury

Lazing on a sunny afternoon

In the summer time

In the summer time

In the summer time

Save me save me save me from this squeeze

I got a big fat momma tryin' a break me

And I love to live to pleasantly

Live this life of luxury

Lazing on a sunny afternoon

In the summer time

In the summer time

In the summer time

In the summer time

In the summer time
