      G  
In the summertime when the weather is hot, 
                               
you can stretch right up and touch the sky, 
        C                                                      G  
when the weather is fine, you got women, you got women on your mind.         
       D                                               
Have a drink, have a drive,  
C                           G  
go out and see what you can find. 


      G  
If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal, 
                            
if her daddy's poor, just do as you feel. 
        C                                          G  
Speed along the lane, do a ton or a ton and twenty-five. 
         D                         
When the sun goes down,    
        C                            G  
you can make it make it good in a lay-by. 


              G  
We're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean, 
                              
we love everybody but we do as we please. 
         C                                                    G  
When the weather is fine, we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.       
              D      
We're always happy, 
           C                                 G 
life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy. 


      G  
Sing along with us, da da di di di  
                        
Da da da da yeah we’re happy  
      C                           G 
Da da da da, di di di di di da da da  
         D 
Da da da da ,  
       C                         G  
da da da da da da da da da da da da  



            G  
When the winter's here, yeah, it's party-time,  
                                                        
bring a bottle, wear your bright clothes, it'll soon be summertime. 
          C                                                  G  
And we'll sing again, we'll go driving or maybe we'll settle down.     
         D                               
If she's rich if she's nice,  
           C                              G  
bring your friend and we will all go into town. 



Repeat Verse 1, 2, 3 and then the diddles until fade out.
