Lyrics: [Verse 1] The sun is up and beating down It's hot enough to melt the ground A little water would do us good The clouds would help us if they could [Bridge] They'd send showers of pouring rain Get everything wet again We could go and float around In our favorite swimming ground [Chorus] Best place I ever found Wasn't close to any town Was a little swimming ground Everything just floating around [Verse 2] Out to lunch and out of town Pretty close to falling down A little water would do us good The clouds would help us if they could [Bridge] [Chorus] [Verse 1] [Bridge] [Chorus]
