I’m gonna raise a fuss,
I’m gonna raise a holler
‘Bout a workin’ all summer
Just to try to earn 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 Poppa told me
Son you gotta make some money
If you wanna use the car
To go ‘ridin next Sunday

Well I didn’t go to work, told the boss I was sick.
Now you can’t have the car ’cause you didn’t work a lick”
Sometimes I wonder what I’m a’gonna do
But there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues


I’m gonna take two weeks
Gonna have fine vacation
I’m gonna take my problem
To the United Nations

Well I called my congressman and he said, quote
“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

Rock and roll, Rockabilly
