Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by

[Deutscher Songtext zu „Summertime“]

[Strophe 1]
Sommerzeit
Und das Leben ist leicht
Fische springen
Und die Baumwolle, die Baumwolle steht hoch
Oh, dein Vater, er ist reich
Und deine Mutter, sie sieht gut aus
Also sei still, kleines Baby
Wein nicht

[Strophe 2]
An einem dieser Morgen
Wirst du singend aufwachen
Du wirst deine Flügel ausbreiten
Und fliegen, und zum Himmel fliegen
Bis zu diesem Morgen
Kann dir nichts schaden
Mit Papa und Mama an deiner Seite

[Instrumental]
