Summertime

George Gershwin

Mmm, summertime
Whoa-oh, they say the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high, oh yeah, oh
Your mother is rich
Oh, and your father's good lookin', yes, he is
I said you hush little baby
Oh no, please, please don't cry no more, no more

Oh, one of these mornings now
I know you are gonna rise up singing
Spread your little wings
Fly way, way up in the sky, ah-oh

But until that mornin'
I know, I know there is nothin' gonna harm you
Because your mama and your daddy
Oh, they are standing somewhere by
I know they're standing somewhere by
Oh yeah, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

One of these mornings
I know you are gonna rise up singing
Spread your little wings
Fly way, way up in the sky, ah-ah

But until that morning
I know there is nothin' gonna harm you
Because your mama and daddy
They are standing somewhere by
All the time, all the time, all the time
Summertime, all the time
