Now all crew come get some sunshine
Summer time vibe come back again
Tell all you friends man!
Groovin! On a summer afternoon
Groovin could’nt get away too soon
Now every woman every man come listen dis yah one
From de heartical dan mr. Pato banton
Me comin in c-comin in c-comin in strong
With a positive summer time vibration
Cause in de winter me can’t tek de cold
Body start shiver when the breeze start blow
Car can’t start cause the engine froze
Can’t feel me fingers, can’t feel me toes
But in the summer when the sun a shine bright
Kick off me boot put on me air nike
Leave me car and jump pon me bike
It’s this kind of weather i like
Groovin! On a summer afternoon
Groovin could’nt get away too soon
Well everyday people in a rat race
But if i could i would just slow down the pace
Like a record on a deck, switch the speed
From 45 down to 33,
Who! Nice and slow
Sun a shine and breeze a blow
Lord! Nice and easy
Just a chill with me friends and family
I can’t imagine anything that’s better
The world is ours whenever we’re together
There ain’t a place i’d rather be instead of groovin’!
Now in the struggle to achieve success
Everyone goes through some kind of stress
The rich man, the poor man, the begger man, thief
Lawyer and the doctor, even the priest
Woo oh! Some people take a trip to the beach
Woo oh! To get a little stress relief
Woo oh! Take a picnic down to the park
Woo oh! With me children and me sweetheart
Woo oh! Oh yes i have to confess
Woo oh! The summer time vibes are the best
Woo oh! People, people if you agree
Woo oh! I’m pato banton come follow me
Groovin! On a summer afternoon
Groovin! Could’nt get away to soon
