SUMMERTIME BLUES
Eddie Cochran

I'm gonna raise a fuss
I'm gonna raise a holler
About-a workin' all summer
Just-a trying to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby
And ask her to date
My boss says "No dice, son
You gotta worka late"
Sometimes I wonder
What I'm-a gonna do
Cuz there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Well my mama papa told me
"Son, you gotta earn some money"
If you wanna take the car
To go ridin' next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work
Told my pa  I was sick
"You canna use the car
'Cuz you dinna worka lick"
Sometimes I wonder what l'm-a gonna do
Cuz there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Gonna take two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
l'm gonna take my problem
To the United Nation'
I called up my congressman
And he said quote
"l'd like to help you Son
But you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what l'm-a gonna do
Cuz there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
