Lazy Days
Spanky & Our Gang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ice cream, Day dream, till the sky becomes a blanket of stars.
What a day for pickin' daisies, and lots of red balloons.
And what a day for holdin' hands and bein' with you.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away.
Lazy Day, Made for a stroll in the lane,
Baby, you and me (Baby you and me)
Lazy Day, Lazy Day, Lazy Day
'n' you 'n' me
Blue sky, Sunshine, flowers bloomin' children sayin' hello.
Row boats, bird notes, people smilin' ev'rywhere that they go.
What a day to be together, and what a sky of blue.
And what a day for thinkin' right out loud, I love you.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away.
Lazy Day, Made for a stroll in the lane,
Baby, you and me (Baby you and me)
and the honey bee ('Neath a shady tree)
Lazy Day, Lazy Day, Lazy Day
'n' you 'n' me
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away
Lazy Day, Made for a strollin' the lane.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away
Lazy Day, Made for a strollin' the lane.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away

I was in the Air Force stationed in Charleston in ‘66 and a bunch of us were walking the “battery” and walked in this studio accidentally and Spanky (relatively unknown in ‘66)and Our Gang were rehearsing and singing and and we instantaneously loved the songs and actually they were singling “Lazy Day”!! It was fantastic!!! What a great day!!!

I was playing music videos for my Dad (drafted '66-'68) and he wanted to see what Spanky and Our Gang looked like. It was a treat seeing him go back to his younger days and I'm thankful to grow up listening to his fabulous 60's music.

A guilty pleasure. Spanky and her mates nailed it.
In the middle of the Early Rock Era, I had to live in denial that I loved this one.
The Cool Kids would have crucified me.
I've come out of hiding today to say this is just one of the great ones.
Patti S Wolf
Amen !🎉
Nick Campbell
Nothing guilty about it.

This song is SO MUCH BETTER than in a Gadda da vida!!!
