I'm a gonna raise a fuss,
I'm a gonna raise a holler
About a workin' old summer just to try to earn a dollar
Every time I call my baby, try to get a date
Paul says, oh die son, you gotta work late
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do But
there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Oh well my mom and pop told me son,
you gotta make some money
If you wanna use the car,
to go a-ridin' next Sunday
Oh well I didn't go to work,
for the boss I was sick
Well you can't use a car,
cause you didn't work or live
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 fun 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
