Summertime
And the livin' is easy
The catfish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Your pappy is rich
And your mama's good-lookin'
Hush, little baby
Honey don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Gonna spread out them wings
And take to the sky
Until that day
You better hush up your cryin'
Cause your mama and your pappy
Honey they're standin' by
Summertime
And the livin' is easy
Them ole catfish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Your pappy is rich
And your mama's good-lookin'
Hush, little baby
Honey don't you cry
I said hush, little baby
Don't you cry
