Summertime Blues (Live)

(albüm: Almost True - 2017)

I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About a-working all summer just to try to earn a dollar
I call my baby, try to get a date
My boss says, "no dice son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well, my mom and papa told me, "son, you gotta earn some money"
If you want to use the car to go riding next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work, I told the boss I was sick
"Well, you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
I called my congressman and he said "whoa!"
"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
