Summertime Blues

I'm gonna raise a fuss

I'm gonna raise a holler

About workin' all summer

Just-a trying to earn a dollar

Every time I call my baby

And ask her to date

My boss says ";Uh duh son you gotta work late";

Sometimes I wonder

What I'm-a gonna do

But there ain't no cure

For the summertime blues

Well my mama papa told me

";Son, you gotta make some money";

If you wanna use the car

To go ridin' next Sunday

Well, I didn't go to work

So my pa said I was sick

";You can't use the car

'Cuz you didn't work a lick";

Sometimes I wonder what l'm-a gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues



I'm going to take your wish

Gonna have a fine vacation

l'm gonna take my problem

Through the United Nations

Well I called my congressman

And he said to woe

";l'd like to help you son

But you're too young to vote";

Sometimes I wonder what l'm-a gonna do

But there ain't no cure

For the summertime blues
