Janis Joplin - Summertime[take 1] lyrics

Summertime, time, time,

Child, the livings easy.

Fish are jumping out

And the cotton, lord,

Cottons high, lord, so high.

Your daddys rich

And your ma is so good-looking, baby.

Shes looking good now,

Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't you cry.

Aahhhh!

One of these mornings

Youre gonna rise, rise up singing,

Youre gonna spread your wings,

Child, and take, take to the sky,

Lord, the sky.

Until that morning

Honey, n-n-nothings going to harm you now,

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

Don't you cry,

Don't you cry,

Cry.
