Nicky Hopkins - Sunny Afternoon lyrics

{Intro} 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 everythin' I've got All I've got's this sunny afternoon Save me, save me Save me from this squeeze I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me And 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 My girlfriend's gone off with my car And gone back to her mar and par Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty Now I'm sitting here Sipping at my ice cold beer Lazing on a sunny afternoon 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 Summertime, in summertime In summertime Save me, save me Save me from this squeeze I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me And 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, in the summertime In the summertime
