To go ridin' next Sunday”
Sometimes I wonder
Gonna have a fine vacation
To the United Nations
About a working all summer
Sometimes I wonder
Sometimes I wonder
I'd like to help you son
What I'm a gonna do?
Oh, well my Mom and Poppa told me
But there ain't no cure
What I'm a gonna do
For the summertime blues
But there ain't no cure
Well, I didn't go to work
Just to try to earn a dollar
If you want to use the car
Told the boss I was sick
'Cause you didn't work a lick
But you're too young to vote”
I'm gonna take my problem
And he said, “Whoa
You gotta work late"
Well, you can't use the car
Well, I called my congressman
For the summertime blues
But there ain't no cure
“Son, you gotta make some money
Try to get a date
What I'm a gonna do
Well, time I called my baby
My boss says, "No dice, son
I'm gonna take two weeks
