Summertime Blues
(eddie cochran)
Well i'm gonna raise a fuss & i'm gonna raise a holler
I've been working all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Well the time will come when baby, i try to get a date
My boss says ["no dice, girl, you gotta work late."]
Sometimes i wonder what i'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well my mom & brother told me girl you gotta make some money
If you want to use the car to go riding 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 late.]
Sometimes i wonder what i'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'm gonna take two weeks--gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem to the united nations
Well i called the congressman & he said quote
["i'd like to help you honey but you're too young to vote."]
Sometimes i wonder what i'm a-gonna do
And there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Ain't no cure
No no
