(Gershwin & Heyward)

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
