in the summertime when the weather is high,
you can stretch right up and touch the sky,
when the weather is 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 as you feel.
speed along the land,
do a ton, or a ton and twentyfive.
when the sun goes down, you can make it,
make it good in a lay-by.
we're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean.
we love everybody, but we do as we think.
when the weather is fine
we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.
we're are always happy,
live's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy.
sing along with us, dee-dee-dee-dee-dee.
da-da-da-da-da...
yeah, we're happy happy, da-da-da-da-dah.
when the winter's here, then it's party time.
bring a bottle,
wear you're bright clothes. it'll soon be summertime.
and we'll sing again,
we''l go drivin' or maybe we'll settle down.
if she's rich, if she's nice,
bring you're friends and we'll all go into town
Mungo Jerrynin 1970 yılında kendisiyle aynı isimde olan Mungo Jerry isimli albümünde yer alan ve bence en güzel şakısıdır. Sahip olduğu farklı ve eğlenceli kişiliğinin şarkılarına renk kattığının temsilidir adeta. Bu şarkı insana nedensiz bir mutluluk veriyor, oturduğu yerde oynatıyor kişiyi.
70lerin tatli muzik grubu mungo jerry'nin tatli mi tatli sarkisidir. sarkisinin 'if her daddy's rich take her out for a meal, if her daddy's poor just do what you feel' kismiyla da ilk bulusmaya realistik bir bakis acisi getirmistir efendim.
thirsty merc şarkısı. çok ama çok iyidir. bir yerden de acayip tanıdık geliyor, sanki aha önce bir dizi ya da filmde duymuşum gibi. ama çıkartamadım henüz.
I don't have a job
I never liked them
I just wanna play in the sunshine
They say I was wrong
But I know better
I live my life like I'm dying
Gimme a chance
I'll do my best to kick and scream and dance
When winter comes I'll turn around
Take me back to the sweet times
The hot nights
Everything is gonna be alright
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
And even if I have to wait til next year
I don't care
All I know is that I'll meet you there
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
That is where I'll be
I can't complain
'Cos I'm still breathing
There's nobody breathing down my neck now
Gimme a go
Like an open furnace setting fire to snow
When winter comes I'll ask the crowd
To take me back to the sweet times
The hot nights
Everything is gonna be alright
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
And even if I have to wait til next year
I don't care
All I know is that I'll meet you there
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
That is where I'll be
So let me run
I'll dream until my head weighs 16 tonnes
And when I wake sometime in June
I'll say
Take me back to the sweet times
The hot nights
Everything is gonna be alright
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
And even if I have to wait til next year
I don't care
All I know is that I'll meet you there
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
Take me back to the sweet times
The hot nights
Everything is gonna be alright
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
And even if I have to wait til next year
I don't care
All I know is that I'll meet you there
In the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
Baby, in the summertime
That is where I'll be
