Summertime
Dorothy Heyward, Du Bose Heyward, George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
Summertime, and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin'
So hush, little baby, baby don't you cry
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But til that morning, there's nothin' can harm you
With daddy and mommy, mommy standin' by
Don't you cry
