Summertime Lyrics

Intro

Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Oh your daddy's rich and your ma is good lookin'
So hush little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singing
Yeah, you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
But 'til that morning
There's nothin' can harm you
Yeah, with daddy and mammy standin' by
Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Oh your daddy's rich and your ma is good lookin'
So hush little baby, don't you cry
