Summertime

Lyrics for Summertime

Summertime, and the livin' is so easy. Fish are jumpin', and the cotton is so high. Yo' daddy 's rich and yo' ma is so good-lookin', So hush, my little baby, don't you cry. One of these mornin's, you're gonna rise up singin'; Spread your wings, and take to the sky. But, until that mornin', there is nothin' can harm you, With daddy and mommy standin' by. Summertime, and the livin' is so easy. Fish are jumpin', and the cotton is so high. Yo' daddy 's rich and yo' ma is so good-lookin', So hush, my little baby, don't you cry. 'Cause, one of these mornin's, you're gonna rise up singin'; Spread your wings, and take to the skies. But until that mornin', there is nothin' can harm you, With daddy and mommy standin' by. Summertime.
