I'm a-gonna raise a fuss , I'm a-gonna raise a holler . . . .'Bout workin' all summer just to try ta earn a dollar
Well ev'ry [F] time I call my baby try to get a date my boss says [BREAK] "No dice son ya gotta work a-late"
        Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do . . 'Cause there [C] ain't no cure for the [G] summertime blues
My mom and papa told me son ya gotta earn some money, if ya wanna use the car to go ridin' next sunday
I didn't go to work told my Pa I was sick . . He said,"ya can't use the car 'cause ya didn't work a lick"
        Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertimes blues
[Modulate to: DDDG AAAD]
I'm gonna take two weeks gonna have a fine vacation . . I'm gonna take my problems to the United Nations
Well I called my congress man and he told quote, "I'd like to help ya son but you're too young to vote "
        Sometimes I wonder what I'm uh goona do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertimes blues
