John, Elton - In The Summertime Lyrics






In the summertime when the weather is 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 draft
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 __
When the sun goes down, you can make it, make it good and then they buy

We're not __ people, we're not dirty __
We love everybody, but we do as we please
When the weather's fine, we go fishing or go swimming in the sea
We're always happy, __ yeah that's our philosophy

Sing along with us, de de de-de-dee
Da da da-da-da, yeah we're hap-happy
Da da da-da-da-da-da da da-da da
Da da da-da-da-da-da da da-da da

When the winter's here, yeah it's party time
Bring you bottle, __ it'll soon be summertime
And we'll sing again, __ settle down
If she's rich, if she's nice, bring your friends and we'll all go into town

  1. R.... D....

    Who else is here because they got to page 44 of Elton's book and just HAD to see if there was still evidence of this recording?? 😂😂😂 **Jazz hands**👐

    R.... D....

    Rhonda Dixon page 59 you mean? ;)

    R.... D....

    @EJShelby The page #'s might be different because I was reading the ebook version but I'm sure we're talking about the same part of the book. 😂 I just had to look it up and hear it for myself. 🤣

  2. L.... R....

    Elton did this back when he worked for a sound-a-like record company.

  3. C.... ....

    I say Sir Elton, when singing this, is trying to be like... Victor Borge!

  4. D.... P....

    Didn't he do "Come and get it " on this album?

    D.... P....

    Dean Prescott yes

  5. R.... M....

    Anybody else notice the fart noise?

    R.... M....

    That's best left for musicians with a comedic edge, like Victor Borge!

    R.... M....

    What's funny is It's even in the original version too.

    R.... M....
