Mike Love - Summertime Blues lyrics
[Mike Love - Summertime Blues lyrics]
Well, I'm a-gonna raise a fuss
I'm a-gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer
Just to try to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby
To try to get a date
My boss says "No dice, son
You gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure
For the summertime, summertime blues
Well, my mama and papa told me
Son, you gotta make some money
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
If you wanna go ridin'
In the car next Sunday
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
Well, I didn't go to work
Told the boss I was sick
"You can't use the car
'Cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure
For the summertime, summertime blues
Gonna take two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
Gonna take my problems to the United Nations
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
I called my congressman and he said, quote
"I'd love to help you, son
But you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure
For the summertime, summertime blues
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
I'm a-gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer
Just to try to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby
To try to get a date
My boss says "No dice, son
You gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure
For the summertime, summertime blues
Well, my mama and papa told me
Son, you gotta make some money
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
If you wanna go ridin'
In the car next Sunday
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
Well, I didn't go to work
Told the boss I was sick
"You can't use the car
'Cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure
For the summertime, summertime blues
Gonna take two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
Gonna take my problems to the United Nations
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
I called my congressman and he said, quote
"I'd love to help you, son
But you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure
For the summertime, summertime blues
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
(Sum-sum, summertime blues)
