Well I'm a gonna raise a fuss I'm 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 I'm a gonna do But there ain't 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 I'm a gonna do But there ain't 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 I'm a gonna do But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
