Lyrics

Summertime, and the livin' is easy
Fish are a-jumpin', and the cotton is high
Your pappy's rich, your mammy's good-lookin'
Hush, little baby, honey, don't you cry
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singin'
You'll spread out your wings and take to the sky
Until that day, you can hush up your cryin'
Your pappy and your mammy standin' by
Summertime, and the livin' is easy
Catfish are jumpin', and the cotton is high
Your pappy's rich, your mammy's good-lookin'
Hush, little baby, honey, don't you cry
Come on, honey, now go to sleep
Written by: Dorothy Heyward, Dubose Heyward, George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
