Summertime Blues

Well, let's rock it now

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

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

Every time I call my baby, tryna get a date

Boss says, no dice, 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 mom and 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, 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 a-gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues, yeah

I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation

I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nation

Well, I called my congressman, and he said, quote

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

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues, yeah

I said there ain't no cure for the summertime blues, yeah
