Lyrics:

(sung by the tramp)Im sitting by the side of a riverUnderneath the pale blue skyIve got no need to worry, Im in no hurryIm looking at the world go by.Just sitting in the midday sun,Just soaking up that currant bun,With no particular purpose or reasonSitting in the midday sun.Everybody say Im lazyThey all tell me get a job you slob,Id rather be a hobo walking round with nothingThan a rich man scared of losing all hes got.So Im just sitting in the midday sunJust soaking up that currant bun,Why should I have to give my reasonsFor sitting in the midday sunOh look at all the ladiesLooking their best in their summer dresses,Oh sitting in the sun.Ive got no home,Ive got no moneyBut who needs a job when its sunny. wah wah.I havent got a steady occupationAnd I cant afford a telephone.I havent got a stereo, radio or videoA mortgage, overdraft, a bank loan.The only way that I can get my funIs by sitting in the midday sunWith no particular purpose or reasonSitting in the midday sun.Oh listen to the people,Say Im a failure and Ive got nothing,Ah but if they would only seeIve got my pride,Ive got no money,But who needs a job when its sunny. wah wah.Everybody thinks Im crazy,And everybody says Im dumb,But when I see the people shouting at each otherId rather be an out of work bum.So Im just sitting in the midday sunJust soaking up that currant bun,With no particular purpose or reasonSitting in the midday sun.
