Summertime an' the livin' is easy Fish are jumpin' an' the cotton is high Oh, yo' daddy's rich an' yo' ma is good lookin' So hush, little baby, don' you cry One of these mornin's you goin' to rise up singin' Then you'll spread yo' wings an' you'll take the sky But till that mornin' there's a nothing can harm you With Daddy and Mammy standin' by oh-oh
