Well Lord I got to raise a fuss
Lord I got to raise a holler
Well I been working all summer
Just to try and earn a dollar
Well Lord I tried to call my baby
I tried to get a date
Sometimes I wonder
What I'm a-gonna do
Lord there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Well my mom and papa told me
"Son, you got to make some money
Well if you wanna to use the car
and go riding next Sunday"
Well Lord I didn't go to work
I told the boss I was sick, he said
Sometimes I wonder
What I'm a-gonna do
Lord there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
I got to take three weeks
I got to have a fun vacation
I got to take my problem
To the United Nations
I done told my congressman
And he said quote
"Dig this, boy"
Sometimes I wonder
What I'm a-gonna do
Lord there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
I got to take three weeks
I got to take a fun vacation
I'd like to take my problem
To the United Nation
I done told my congressman
And he said quote
"Dig this, boy"
Sometimes I wonder
What I'm a-gonna do
Lord there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Oh, ain't no cure
