Lyrics:

My friend the communist
Holds meetings in his RV
I can't afford his gas
So I'm stuck here watching TV
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

I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up

I'm gonna tell them that
I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame
I'm looking up
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna soak up the sun

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
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

I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up


I'm gonna tell them that
I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame
I'm looking up
I'm gonna soak up the sun
While it's still free
I'm gonna soak up the sun
Before it goes out on me

Don't have no master suite
But I'm still the king of me
You have a fancy ride, but baby
I'm the one that has the key
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

I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up
I'm gonna tell them that
I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame
I'm looking up

I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up
I'm gonna tell them that
I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame
I'm looking up


(Help me sing, now..)
I'm gonna soak up the sun
Got my 45 on
So I can rock on.

@dfwguy1960, So.? She's still a human being, Just like You, and Me. and Everybody else in the world. She still has everyday problems.

[19621963]

she sounds awesome live ................wow

[iloveinu2death]

@dfwguy1960 You're stupid. That isn't the point. This song is for anyone who needs some encouragement in life. If a person feels low but then after hearing this song feels 10 times higher and better, then the song has completed its purpose. Don't take the song so literally. geez. The song is meant to encourage and inspire. And if it does that, then what the hell are you complaining about?

[dfwguy1960]

This song is stupid. She doesn't have to worry about any of the stuff in this song, she's a millionaire.

We love you Sheryl
