"Summertime" lyrics
(originally from "Porgy and Bess" musical)
Summertime, and the living is easy
Fish are jumping, and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy's rich, and your ma is good-looking
So, hush, little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there ain't nothing can harm you
With mammy and daddy standing by
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there's nothing can harm you
With daddy and mammy standing by
With daddy and mammy standing by
With daddy and mammy standing by
Fish are jumping, and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy's rich, and your ma is good-looking
So, hush, little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there ain't nothing can harm you
With mammy and daddy standing by
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there's nothing can harm you
With daddy and mammy standing by
With daddy and mammy standing by
With daddy and mammy standing by
