    in the summertime when the weather is high
    you can stretch 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
    speed along the lane
    do a ton or a ton an’ twentyfive
    when the sun goes down
    you can make it make it good in a layby

    we’re not bad people
    we’re not dirty we’re not mean
    we love everybody but we do as we please
    when the weather’s fine
    we go fishin’ or go swimmin’ in the sea
    we’re always happy
    life’s for livin’ yeah that’s our philosophy
