Summertime Blues

I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler

About workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar

Every time I called baby just to try to get a date

The boss says "No dice 'cause 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 mom and pop they told "Son you got to earn some money

If you want to use the car to go drivin' next Sunday"

Well I didn't go to work I told the boss I was sick

"Now you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do

Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues.

I'm gonna take three weeks I'm gonna have my vacation

I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations

Well I called my congressman and he said quote

"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do

Lord there ain't no cure for the summetime blues.
