Lazin' on a Sunny Afternoon,
In the summertime
Repeat chords for remaining verses
My girlfriend's run off with my car
Gone back to her ma and pa
Tellin' tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sittin' here, sipping on my ice-cold beer
Lazin' on a Sunny Afternoon
Help me, help me, help me sail away
Give me two good reasons why I ought to stay
'Cos I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazin' on a Sunny Afternoon, In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
