Summertime Blues (Live at Leeds)

Well, I'ma gonna raise a fuss, I'ma gonna raise a holler

I been workin' all summer just to try and earn a dollar

Well, I went to the boss, just the other day

The boss said, "No dice, son, you gotta work late"

Sometimes I wonder what I'ma gonna do

There ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well, my mom and papa told me, "Son, you gotta earn some money

If you wanna use the car to go out next Sunday"

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

He said, "You can't use the car 'cause you didn't work late"

Sometimes I wonder what I'ma gonna do

There ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation

Gonna take my problems to the United Nations

Then I went to my congressman, he said, boy

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

Sometimes I wonder what I'ma gonna do

There ain't no cure for the summertime blues
