Intro
E B A x4
Verse 1
My friend the communist
Holds meetings in his RV
I can't afford his gas
So I'm stuck here watching TV
Verse 2
I don't have digital
I don't have diddly squat
It's not having what you want
It's wanting what you've got
Chorus
I'm gonna soak up the sun. I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up (I'm gonna tell 'em that)
I've got no one to blame for every time I feel lame
I'm looking up
Gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna soak up the sun
Verse 3
I've got a crummy job
It don't pay near enough
To buy the things it takes
To win me some of your love
Bridge
Every time I turn around
I'm looking up, you're looking down
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do
Chorus
I'm gonna soak up the sun. I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up (I'm gonna tell 'em that)
I've got no one to blame for every time I feel lame
I'm looking up
Gonna soak up the sun
While it's still free
Gonna soak up the sun
Before it goes out on me
Verse 4
Don't have no master suite
I'm still the king of me
You have a fancy ride, but baby
I'm the one who has the key
Bridge
Every time I turn around
I'm looking up, you're looking down
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do
Maybe I am crazy too
Chorus
I'm gonna soak up the sun. I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up (I'm gonna tell 'em that)
I've got no one to blame for every time I feel lame
I'm looking up
Chorus
I'm gonna soak up the sun. I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up (I'm gonna tell 'em that)
I've got no one to blame for every time I feel lame
I'm looking up
Outro
I'm gonna soak up the sun, got my 45 on
So I can rock on
