Lyrics
for the summertime blues
every time i call my baby
every time i call my baby
Every time i call my baby, l d like to help you son
Just-a trying to earn a dollar, through the united nations, just-a trying to earn a dollar
A-but-a workin all summer, well i called my congressman
for the summertime blues
Sometimes i wonder what l m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure, i m gonna raise a holler, you gotta make some money
so my pa said i was sick
Sometimes i wonder what l m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure, if you wanna use the car, you gotta make some money
Cuz you didn t work a lick, cuz you didn t work a lick
gonna have a fine vacation
Cuz you didn t work a lick, l m going to take your wish
And ask her to date, if you wanna use the car
You gotta work late, you can t use the car
but you re too young to vote
But you re too young to vote, well i called my congressman, i didn t go to work
Sometimes i wonder, well my mama papa told me
a-but-a workin all summer
And ask her to date, well i called my congressman Summertime, i m gonna raise a holler
A-but-a workin all summer, just-a trying to earn a dollar
Through the united nations, every time i call my baby Summertime, well i called my congressman
Well my mama papa told me, i m gonna raise a holler
every time i call my baby
For the summertime blues, for the summertime blues
So my pa said i was sick, l d like to help you son, sometimes i wonder what l m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure
what i m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure
but you re too young to vote
A-but-a workin all summer, just-a trying to earn a dollar Brian, for the summertime blues
Sometimes i wonder what l m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure, well i called my congressman, cuz you didn t work a lick
So my pa said i was sick, i didn t go to work, if you wanna use the car
I m gonna raise a holler, i m gonna raise a fuss Brian, so my pa said i was sick
I didn t go to work, a-but-a workin all summer
My boss says uh duh son, just-a trying to earn a dollar, cuz you didn t work a lick
If you wanna use the car, and ask her to date, you gotta make some money
and he said to woe
Sometimes i wonder what l m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure, l m gonna take my problem
For the summertime blues, to go ridin next sunday
I m gonna raise a holler, a-but-a workin all summer
L m gonna take my problem, a-but-a workin all summer Summertime, l m going to take your wish
To go ridin next sunday, well i called my congressman Summertime, you gotta work late
sometimes i wonder what l m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure
You gotta make some money, i didn t go to work
What i m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure, sometimes i wonder what l m-a gonna do but there ain t no cure, you gotta work late
if you wanna use the car
A-but-a workin all summer, for the summertime blues Blues, and ask her to date
For the summertime blues, i m gonna raise a holler Blues, you can t use the car
Well my mama papa told me, every time i call my baby, l d like to help you son
