Summertime Blues
James Taylor - Summertime Blues
Well Im a- gonna raise a fuss, Im a- gonna raise a holler
Ive been a- workin all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Everytime I call my baby try to make a date
The boss says 'No dice son, you gotta work late'
Sometimes I wonder what Im a- gonna do
But there aint 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 wouldnt go to work, I told the boss I was sick
He said 'You cant use the car cause you didnt work a lick'
Sometimes I wonder what Im a-gonna do
But there aint 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 called my Congressman and he said quote
'Id like to help you son, but youre too young to vote'
Sometimes I wonder what Im a -gonna do
But there aint to cure for the summertime blues
But there aint to cure for the summertime blues
