Summertime

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by
George Gershwin and DuBose Heyward
Performed by Janis Joplin and Big Brother and the Holding Company
From the 1968 album Cheap Thrills
1934
