Summertime and the living is easy

Fish are jumping

And the cotton is high

Your daddy is rich

And your mama is good looking

So hush little baby

Don't you cry

One of these mornings

You're gonna rise up singing

Then you spread your wings

And take to the sky

But till that morning

There ain't nothing gonna harm you

Well daddy and mama standing by

Summertime and the living is easy

One of these mornings

You're gonna rise up singing

And then you spread your little wings

And take to the sky

But till that morning

There ain't nothing gonna harm you

Well daddy and mama standing by
