James Taylor - Summertime Blues lyrics

Well I'm gonna raise a fuss

And I'm gonna raise a holler

About workin' all summer

Just tryin' to earn a dollar

Well, I went to my boss

Who governs me

He said, "No, dice, bud

You gotta work late"

Sometime I wonder

What I'm gonnna do

There ain't no cure

For the summertime blues

Well, my mom and papa told me

Now you better earn some money

If one of you is gonna go

Ridin' next Sunday

Well, I didn't go to work

I told my boss I was sick

He said, "You can't use the car

'Cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometime I wonder

What I'm gonnna do

There ain't no cure

For the summertime blues

Gonna save two weeks

Gonna have a fine vacation

Gonna take my problem

To the United Nations

Well, I went to my congressman

He sent me back a note

It said, "I''d like to help you, hon

But you're too young to vote"

Sometime I wonder

What I'm gonnna do

There ain't no cure

For the summertime blues

Now there ain't no cure

For the summertime blues

Now there ain't no cure

For the summertime blues
