 27469>(Roger Miller)
 
 
 
 In the summertime when all
 
 The trees and leaves're green
 
 And the red bird sings, I'll be blue
 
 'Cause you don't want my love.
 
 
 
 Some other time
 
 That's what you say when I want you
 
 Then you laugh at me and make me cry
 
 'Cause you don't want my love.
 
 
 
 You don't seem to care a thing
 
 About me, rather live without me
 
 Than to have my arms around you
 
 When the nights are cold and you're so all alone.
 
 
 
 In the summertime when all
 
 The trees and leaves are green
 
 And the red bird sings, I'll be blue
 
 'Cause you don't want my love.
 
 
 
 --- Instrumental ---
 
 
 
 Once upon a time you used to
 
 Smile and wave to me
 
 And walked with me, but now you don't
 
 'Cause you don't want my love.
 
 
 
 Some other guy
 
 Is takin' up all your time
 
 You don't have time for me
 
 'Cause you don't want my love.
 
 
 
 You don't seem to care a thing
 
 About me, rather live without me
 
 Than to have my arms around you
 
 When the nights are cold and you're so all alone.
 
 
 
 In the summertime when all
 
 The trees and leaves are green
 
 And the red bird sings, I'll be blue
 
 'Cause you don't want my love...
