Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Summertime
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumping
Every day, yeah
And the cotton is high
Your dad is a-woo
So rich, baby
And your mama
Oh, mighty good-lookin'
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
So hush, little baby, yeah
And don't you
No, no, no, no
Please, please don't cry
[Verse 3]
One of these mornings
We're gonna get up
Oh, yeah
We're gonna rise up singin', yeah
We'll spread our wings, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And we'll take to the sky
Again
[Verse 4]
There ain't nothing
Nowhere, no, no
There ain't nothing is gonna harm you
Touch you
Baby, yeah, yeah
You know why?
'Cause your daddy and your mommy
Is gonna standing by all, all, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 5]
Summertime
