Summertime Lyrics

by Trijntje Oosterhuis

Summertime and the living is easy,
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high,
Your daddy is rich and your mumma is so good looking
So hush little baby don't you cry,

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e81954-trijntje_oosterhuis~summertime_lyrics.html ]
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing,
Then you spread your wings and reach for the sky,
But until that morning, you're gonna wind up singing
And mammy and daddy are standing by

Intermezzo

Summertime and the living is easy,
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high,
Your daddy is rich and your mumma is so good looking
So hush little baby don't you cry,
