mungo jerry - in the summertime (rock) 1978 @   (voir la video)




In the summertime when the weather is hot
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's fine
you got women on your mind



"In the Summertime" est une chanson enregistrée en 1970 par le groupe de pop-blues britannique Mungo Jerry. Ecrit par le leader du groupe, Ray Dorset, il célèbre les jours insouciants de l'été. Il est considéré comme l'un des singles les plus vendus de tous les temps avec environ 30 millions d'exemplaires vendus. Il a été utilisé dans une campagne contre la conduite en état d'ivresse au Royaume-Uni en raison de ses paroles: "prenez un verre, conduisez, sortez et voyez ce que vous pouvez trouver".

Chh chh-chh, uh, chh chh-chh
In the summertime when the weather is hot
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 what you feel
Speed along the lane
Do a turn or return the twenty-five
When the sun goes down
You can make it, make it good and really fine
We're not bad people
We're not dirty, we're not mean
We love everybody but we do as we please
When the weather's fine
We go fishin' or go swimmin' in the sea
We're always happy
Life's for livin' yeah, that's our philosophy
Sing along with us
Dee dee dee-dee dee

Bring your bottle, wear your bright clothes
