Well I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About a workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar
every time I call my baby, and try to get a date
My boss says, "No, dice son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonnna do
Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well, my mom and papa told me, "Son you gotta make some money"
If you want to use the car to go 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 gonnna do
Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'm takin two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
Well I went my congressman and he said "Nope"
"I'd like to help you, son but you're too young to vote"
Sometime I wonder what I'm gonnna do
Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
