Lyrics for Sittin' In The Sun
Sittin' in the sun counting my money Fanned by my summer-breeze Sweeter than the honey is counting my money Those greenbacks on the trees Comes the summer shower drops of rain falling Sweeter than the christ-mass chimes And here on those jungles upon the roof shingles Like pennies, nickles and dimes Though it is knows that what I own Is not a lot to move Fills of gold that I behold Are in my bank-account I'm sitting in the sun Counting my money Happy as I can be And to top it all when shadows fall I look to heaven and I see There's a silver dollar In the sky shining down on me Can you wonder why I'm I'm sittin' in the sun Counting my money And happy as I can be And to top it all when shadows fall I look to heaven and I see There's a silver dollar In the sky shining down on me, uh-hm
