Summertime Blues · letra

Well I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler About a-workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar Everytime I call my baby, to try to get a date My boss says, "No dice, son, you gotta work late" Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well my mom 'n' papa told me, "Son, you gotta make some money" "If you wanna use the car to go ridin' next Sunday" Well, I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick "Now you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick" Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

key change

I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a 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 gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler About workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Yeah, sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues No there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
