(Eddie Cochran and Capehart)

Well Lord I got to raise a fuss, Lord I got to
raise a holler

Well I been working all summer just to try and
earn a dollar

Well Lord I tried to call my baby, I tried to get
a date......

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do

Lord there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

You know my mom and papa told me, Son you gotta
make some money

(Of course I do. I should, I work like a dog)

Well if you wanna to use the car go riding next
Sunday

Well Lord I didn't go to work I told the boss I
was sick

He said......

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do

Lord there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

I gotta take three weeks, I gotta have a fun
vacation

I gotta take my problem to the United Nations

I done told my congressman and he said quote

Dig this, boy......

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do

Lord there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

OW!

I'd like to take my three weeks, I need to take a
fun vacation

I'd like to take my problem to the United Nation

I tried to lay my congressman and he said
quote......

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do

Lord there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Whoa no, there ain't no cure.

You got to live with this for the rest of your
life!
