Summer time
And the livin is easy
Fish are jumpin
And the cotton is high
Oh your daddy's rich
And your ma is good lookin
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You gonna rise up singin
Yes you spread your wings
And you take to the sky
But till that mornin
There's nothin can hold you
Yeah lay down by me
Stand by

Summer time
And the livin is easy
Fish are jumpin
And the cotton is high
Oh your daddy's rich
And your ma is good lookin
So hush little baby
Baby don't you cry
