Cochran Eddie Summertime Blues Lyrics

Summertime Blues Lyrics

I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler

About a workin' all
summer just to try to earn a dollar

Every time I call my baby, and try to
get a date

My boss says, "No dice son, you gotta work late"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the
summertime blues



Well my mom and pop told me, "Son you gotta make
some money,

If you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday"

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

"Well you can't use
the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a
gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues



I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation

I'm gonna take my
problem to the United Nations

Well I called my congressman and he said
Quote:

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

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the
summertime blues
