Lyrics

Floatin'

Workin' hard day by day
Nothin' seems to go my way
But I know that it won't be long
Til I relax and just sing a song

I'll be floatin' in the air
Flyin' without a care
I'll be floatin' on the wind
Til I-I-I come back again
I'll be floatin'doo n dee do
Floatin' doot n doodlie doo
Floatin' doot n dee do
Floatin' dee dee dee dee dee dee

Cool water on my feet
Warm sun upon my cheek
Light breeze blowin' through my hair
I don't have a single care

I'm floatin' and it's raining
Smilin' and not complaining
I'm floatin' on the waves
Cause I-I-I just love the way
That I'm floatin'floatin'doo n dee do
Floatin' doot n doodlie doo
Floatin' doot n dee do
Floatin' dee dee dee dee dee dee


The sun shines in my eye
Every morning as it passes by
The moon glows on the sand
I walk with you and we're hand in hand

Floatin' in your eyes
The stars fill up the skies
Floatin' out of sight
Til I-I-I kiss you goodnight
I'll be floatin'
Dee do dee do dee do do do
I'll be floatin'
