Summertime Blues Lyrics

Well I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About a-workin' all summer just to try to get a dollar
Every time 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
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well my Mom and Pop told me, ""son, you gotta make some money""
If you want to use the car to ridin' next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work, 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 vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well, 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
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

....Repeat verse 1 again
