Anche questa canzone “estiva” di Mungo Jerry, datata 1970 e riproposta qualche anno fa, entra a far parte del video del mercoledì di simonlain.

Ve la propongo in un video dell’agosto del 2007 tratto da una trasmissione di una tv francese.

In The Summertime - Mungo Jerry lyrics

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.
