In The Summertime Lyrics

In The Summertime lyrics

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



To 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



So let me run

I'll dream until my head weighs 16 tonnes

And when I wake sometime in June

I'll say



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



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

Baby, in the summertime

Baby, in the summertime

That is where I'll be
