Lyrics

Sittin' in the nude just playin' my guitar.
Gettin' in the mood, and wonderin' where you are.
Pink, lazy clouds and watercolor skies.
Summer's canvas splashed before my sleepy eyes.
Children's voices echo from the avenue.
Their chorus fills my summer song on cue
Two lazy labs are lookin' up at me.
In their plaintive eyes, I wonder what they see.

Drifting through life is its own paradise
Not much to do, less to say.
Slow down, 'cause fate has its own special prize.
So, don't let this day slip away.
(Chorus)
So gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme your love today.
I gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta have your smile.
I'm gonna, gonna, gonna, gonna, gonna do you right today.
Let's live and love and laugh a little while.
(scat) Dooden, dooden, dooden, dooden, doodenda deet-dat, dah.
Dooden, dooden, dooden, dooden, doden do dat, dae.
I'm gonna, gonna, gonna, gonna do you right today.
Let's live and love and laugh a little while.
Longin' for love is its own paradise.
Where you may be, I can't say.
So I'm kickin' back.
It's my joy, it's my prize.
Waiting for love to come my way.
So, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme your love today.
I gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta have your smile.
I'm gonna, gonna, gonna, gonna, gonna do your right today.
Let's live and love and laugh a little while.
(Whistling ends the song, as it fades out).
