George Gershwin
Summertime
[Verse 1]
Summertime
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin', oh
And the cotton is high
Your papa's rich
And your mama's good lookin'

[Refrain]
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

[Verse 2]
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singing
You're gonna spread your wings, oh
And take to the sky, ye
But 'til that mornin'
No, nothin' can harm you
'Cause your mama and papa are right here standing by

[Refrain]
So don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
Don't you cry
'Cause your mama and papa are right here standing by
Oh
