[Herbie Hancock, Joni Mitchell - Summertime lyrics]
Summertime, and the living is easy
Fish are jumping out and the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich and your
Mama's so good looking
So, hush little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise rise up singing
Spread your wings and take to the sky
But until that morning
Ain't no one's gonna harm you
Not with your daddy and mommy standing by
Summertime, and the living is easy
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high
Your mama's rich and your
Daddy's so good looking
So, hush little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise rise up singing
Spread your pretty little wings and
Take to the sky oh, but 'til that morning
Ain't no one's gonna harm you
Not with your daddy and mammy standing by
Summertime
Fish are jumping out and the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich and your
Mama's so good looking
So, hush little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise rise up singing
Spread your wings and take to the sky
But until that morning
Ain't no one's gonna harm you
Not with your daddy and mommy standing by
Summertime, and the living is easy
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high
Your mama's rich and your
Daddy's so good looking
So, hush little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise rise up singing
Spread your pretty little wings and
Take to the sky oh, but 'til that morning
Ain't no one's gonna harm you
Not with your daddy and mammy standing by
Summertime
