Summertime And the livin' is easy, Catfish are jumpin' And the cotton is high. Oh yo' daddy's rich An' yo' ma is good lookin' Hush little baby, Honey don't you cry. One of these mornin's, You gonna rise up singin' Gonna spread out yo' wings An' take to the sky. Until that day, You can hush up yo' crying, Your Daddy an' your Momma Standin' by. Summertime And the livin' is easy, Catfish are jumpin' And that ol' cotton is high. Your daddy's rich An' yo' ma is good lookin', Hush little baby, Honey don't you cry.
