| Summertime and the livin' is easy |
| Fish are jumpin' and the cotton was high |
| Your daddy’s rich and your mama’s good lookin' |
| So hush little baby, don’t you cry |
| Yeah, in the summertime |
| One of these morning, you’re gonna rise up singin' |
| Spread your wings and you’re taking the sky |
| But until that morning, where nothing can harm you |
| With daddy and mummy standing by |
| You and me baby, ah, in the summertime |
| You and me baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| You see, I need you, ah, baby, yeah |
| Summertime and the livin' is easy |
| Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high |
| Your daddy and mama got to watch for our baby |
| They keep on watching you |
| I swear to God, I’m trying to get to you, baby |
| In the summertime, yeah |
| You see baby, I don’t want to see you cry |
| I’m a poor man, baby |
| And your mum and dad have got a lot of money |
| And she’s the sweetest honey, yeah, yeah |
| I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I want to get to you in the summertime |
| I’ll sleep when all gonna walk here |
| Sleep, wait for midnight, yeah |
