SUMMERTIME | SUMMERTIME |
Summertime And the livin' is easy Fish are jumpin' And the cotton is high | Summertime-time-time, Child, your living's easy. Fish are, fish are jumping out And the cotton, Lord, Cotton's high, Lord, so high. |
Oh, your daddy's rich And your mamma's good lookin' So hush, little baby, Don't you cry | Your dad's rich And your ma is so good-looking, baby. She's a-looking pretty fine to me now, Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby now, No, no, no, no, Don't you cry, don't you cry. |
One of these mornings You're going to rise up singing Then you'll spread your wings And you'll take the sky | One of these mornings You're gonna rise, rise up singing, You're gonna spread your wings, child, And take, take to the sky, Lord, the sky. |
But until that morning There's a'nothing can harm you With your daddy and mammy standing by | But until that morning, Honey, n-n-nothing's going to harm ya, No, no, no no, no no, no... No, no, no no, no no, no... No, no, no, no, no, Don't you cry — cry. |
