I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler

About a-workin' all summer, just to try to earn a dollar
             A.                                                              E
Every time I call my baby, try to get a date My boss says: "No dice son, you gotta work late"
A                                                                                         E
 Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do. But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues.

Well my mom 'n poppa told me: "son, you gotta make some money
If you wanta use the car to go a-ridin' 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 I'm a-gonna do. But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well I called my Congressman and he said, quote: "I'd like to help you son, but you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do. But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
