Summertime

And the livin' is easy

Fish are jumpin'

And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich

And your momma's good lookin'

So hush, little baby

Don't you cry

One of these mornin's

Your gonna rise up singin'

Then you'll spread your wings

And you take the sky

Until that mornin'

There is nothin' can harm you

Daddy and mommy

Are standin' by

Summertime

And the livin' is easy

Fish are jumpin'

And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich

And your momma's good lookin'

So hush, little baby

Don't you cry

Livin' is easy

Fish are jumpin'

And mmmmm…

One of these mornin's

Your gonna rise up singin'

With daddy and mommy standin'

Don't you cry
