Summertime Blues

[Intro]

One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]

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

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

Well, I tried to call my baby, tried to get a date

My boss said, "No, dice, kid you gotta work late"

[Chorus]

Sometime I wonder what I'm gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

[Verse 2]

Well, my mama and papa told me, son, you gotta make some money

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

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

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

[Chorus]

Sometime I wonder what I'm gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

[Verse 3]

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

I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nation

Well, I called my congressman, and he said quote

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

[Chorus]

Sometime I wonder what I'm gonna do

But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
