Every time I call my baby to try to get a date
Well, I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
Well, I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick
Yeah, sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
If you wanna use the car to go ridin' next Sunday"
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a vacation
Well my mom n' papa told me, "Son, you gotta make some money
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
"I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote"
Now you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
About workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
My boss says, "No dice, son, you gotta work late"
Well, I called my Congressman and he said quote
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nation
