Lyrics
When old summer’s in the air,
Then somethin’ happens to me.
I just throw away all care.
A drowsy spell goes through me.
All I do is mope all day,
While my thoughts just go astray.
Chorus:
Dreamin’, just dreamin’.
Like to ramble on the road that never ends,
Me and mother nature are the best of friends.
Folks think that I’m lazy, but I’m dreamin’.
Dreamin’. Just dreamin’.
Always tell the daisies ev’rything I’ve planned,
When they nod their heads I know they understand.
Honest, I ain’t lazy, I’m just dreamin’!
I’m kinda’ “pally” with ev’rything that grows,
The little posies, and ev’ry rambling rose.
From early morning, ‘til day comes to a close,
I’m living in a world of my own.
Dreamin’, just dreamin’.
Always lookin’ for my rainbow in the sky.
Funny when you’re dreamin’ how the time does fly.
Honest, I ain’t lazy, I’m just dreamin’!
