In the summertime when the weather's high,
You can stretch right up and touch the sky,
When the weather's fine, you got women,
You got women on your mind. Have a drink, have a drive,
Go out and see what you can find. If her daddy's rich,
Take her out for a meal, if her daddy's poor, just do as you feel.
Speed along the lane, do a ton, or a ton and twenty-five.
When the sun goes down, you can make it,
Make it good in a lay-by. We're not grey people, we're not dirty,
We're not mean. We love everybody, but we do as we think.
When the weather's fine we go fishing
Or go swimming in the sea. We're always happy,
Life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy. Sing along with us. . .
Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee, da-da-da-da-da... Yeah, we're happy happy,
Da-da-da-da-dah. When the winter's here, then it's party time.
Bring a bottle, wear your bright clothes.
It'll soon be summertime, and we'll sing again, we'll go drivin'
Or maybe we'll settle down. If she's rich, if she's nice, bring you're friends
And we'll all go into town

Are you getting excited about your holidays?

To India in a split windscreen VW camper! And I thought you were going to North Cornwall! But maybe the Maharishi and Merlin aren't so very far apart...

I am sure the young ladies in the third picture were those who recently greeted me on my visit to the south west.

I'm not really here, I'm at work marveling at the stupidity of executives.

This was a favorite of mine, when I was a wee one. Such good memories of... ummm... youth?

GREAT photos to accompany the fun lyrics.

Mungo Jerry, ROCK ON! :)
