Intro - E, A, B, E
Well I’m gonna raise a fuss I’m gonna raise a holler,
Working all summer just to earn a dollar.
Every time I call my baby, try to get a date
The boss says, “No dice son you got to work late”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a gonna do,
But there aint no cure for the summertime blues.
Well my mama and papa told me son you got to make some money,
If you wanna use the car to go riding next Sunday.
Well I didn’t go to work told my boss I got sick
“No you can’t use the car cause you didn’t work late!”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a gonna do,
But there aint no cure for the summertime blues.
~Solo~
I’m gonna take two weeks have a fun vacation,
I’m gonna take my problem to the united nation
Well I call my congressman and he said vote!
“I’ll like to help you son but you’re too young to vote”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a gonna do,
But there aint no cure for the summertime blues. Yeah!
I say their aint no cure for the summertime blues yeah!
