Oh Lord, I tried to call my baby, I tried to get a date
Well, if you want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday"
Well, Lord I didn't go to work I told the boss I was sick he said
Lord, there ain't no cure, for the summertime blues
Sometimes I wonder, what I'm a gonna do
I done told my congressman and he said, "Whoa, take this boy"
I've got to take my problem to the United Nations
Sometimes I wonder, what I'm a gonna do
I done told my congressman and he said, "Whoa, take this boy"
Sometimes I wonder, what I'm a gonna do
I've got to take the weeks, I got to have a fun vacation
I've got to take the weeks I got to have a fun vacation
Lord, there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well, my mom and pop told me, "Son you gotta make some money
Lord, there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Lord, there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I've got to take my problem, to the United Nations
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a gonna do
