Summertime Blues - Levon Helm

Well Im a gonna raise a fuss

Im a gonna raise a holler

About working all summer just to try to earn a dollar

Well the time to go on baby trying to get a date

Boss says no date son you gotta work late

Sometimes I wonder what Im a gonna do

But there aint no cure for the summertime blues

Well my mom and popa told me

Son you gotta make some money

If you want to use the car then go right on next sunday

Well I didn’t go to work told the boss I was sick

Now you can’t use the car cause you didn’t work a lick

Sometimes I wonder what Im a gonna do

But there aint 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 called my congress man and he said quote

I would like to help you son but your to young to vote

Sometimes I wonder what Im a gonna do

But there aint no cure for the summertime blues
