Summertime blues lyrics
by Who

Well, I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
'Bout workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Well, I went to the bossman, tried to get a break
But the boss said: "No dice, son, you gotta work late"

Sometimes I wonder what am I gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues

Well, my mom and poppa told me: "Son, you gotta earn some money
If you wanna use the car to go riding next Sunday"
Well, I wouldn't go to work, I told the boss I was sick
He said: "You can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometimes I wonder what am I gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues

Gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well, I went to my congressman, he said, quote
"I'd like to help you, son, but you're too yound to vote"

Sometimes I wonder what am I gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues
