Chorus:
FI'm flying south for the Csummer, G7I'm gonna follow the Csun,
FI'm flying south for the Csummer now the G7mating season's beCgun.
In CSan Tropez I met Selina, now her figure was not very G7nice,
She was so thin the cats had her out on the landing Ctwice.
When she went down to the beach there, everyone C7stared at Fher,
And when she wore her topless Cbathing suit, G7people kept calling her
   'Csir'.  Oh,
Chorus
In CLisbon I first kissed Maria, it was late on a September G7night,
She was a vision of loveliness in the early morning Clight.
I said, "Tell me, where have you been all my life, my Venus C7of the
   [F]dawn?"
She smiled and said, "Well, for the Cfirst twenty years I G7wasn't even
   Cborn."  Oh,
Chorus
Big CAnnie from Brighton once ordered a steak weighing nine and a quarter
   [G7]pound,
The butcher, he said, "Will you take it, ma'am, or shall I send it
   [C]'round?"
She said, "No, I just wanna look at it 'cause I've been dieting C7like a
   [F]chump,
And that's what I've lost and I Cjust wanna see what it G7looks like in
   one Clump."  Oh,
Chorus
Oh, Cone day I saw in Gerona on a river so quiet and reG7mote,
Eight lovely girls from the college, they were all in the same Cboat.
And as they rode in unison by me, I gallantly C7waved my Fhat,
And I said with a sigh, "I Cwish that I could G7stroke a crew just like
   Cthat."  Oh,
Chorus
With CRita I stood in a tube train, we were hanging on tight by the
   [G7]strap,
When she let her pretty white hanky fall on a sleeping old gentleman's
   [C]lap.
Now, when he awoke from his slumber he saw everyone C7staring at Fhim,
And thinking it was his Cshirt tail he G7slyly tucked it Cin.
