D-DU-UDU
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
So let me run
I'll dream until my head weighs 16 tonnes
And when I wake sometime in June
I'll say
NOTE: in the last chorus the ending is a bit different-
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
