Summertime Blues

Well, I'm a gonna raise a fuss I'm a gonna raise a holler I've been working all summer Just to try and earn a dollar Well, I went to the boss said "I got a date" The boss said, "No Dice, son, you gotta work late" Sometimes I wonder what am I gonna do There ain't no cure for the summertime blues Well, my mom and poppa told me "Son, you gotta earn some money If you wanna use the car To go ridin' next Sunday" Well, I didn't go to work I told the boss I was sick He said "You can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick" Sometimes I wonder what am I gonna do There ain't no cure for the summertime blues Gonna take two weeks Gonna have a fine vacation Gonna take my problem To the United Nations Well, I went to my congressman He said, quote, "I'd like to help you son But you're too young to vote" Sometimes I wonder what am I gonna do There ain't no cure for the summertime blues
