Well I was soakin' up the sunshine, chillin' out on the lake.
You could roll me up a doobie, we could smoke it and ride the wake.
And at times we all break the law

Some say that's what it's for

I was soakin' up the sunshine

I had lovin' on my mind
I was dreamin' bout a good time
We'll be goin' all night

I'm soakin' up the sunshine
I had lovin' on my mind
I was dreamin' bout a good time

I'd been workin' with my hands so hard when they started to bleed.
And just a little more cash in the pocket
Is what I need.

And if I could change one thing
Well it would be a bigger diamond to put in your ring.


I was soakin' up the sunshine
I had lovin' on my mind
I was dreamin' bout a good time

We'll be goin' all night
I'm soakin' up the sunshine
I had lovin' on my mind

I was dreamin' bout a good time
You by my side
I was.

Well then ya done yourself a crime


I was soakin' up the sunshine
I had lovin' on my mind
I was dreamin' bout a good time

We'll be goin' all night
I'm soakin' up the sunshine
I had lovin' on my mind

I was dreamin' bout a good time
You by my side
I was
