Summertime
And the living is easy

Fish are jumpin´
And the cotton is high

(Well) Your daddy´s rich
And your mama´s good lookin´
So hush little baby now
(and) don´t you cry

Summertime
And the living is easy
Fish are jumpin´
And the cotton is high

(And) Your daddy´s rich
And your mama´s good lookin´
So hush little baby now
don´t you cry

One of these mornin´s
You´re gonna rise up singin´
You´re gonna spread your wings
And take to the sky

But til that mornin´
Ain´t nothin´ can harm you
(Ain´t nothin´ can harm you)
With your daddy and mammy
standin´ by

It don´t mean a thing
If you ain´t got that swing
It don´t mean a thing
If you ain´t got that swing (*)

Summertime
And the living is easy

Fish are jumpin´
And the cotton is high

(Well) Your daddy´s rich
And your mama´s good lookin´
So hush little baby now
don´t you cry
