[Originally by Eddie Cochran]
Well, I`m gonna raise a fuss
I`m gonna raise a holler
About a working all summer
Just to try to earn a dollar
Well, time I called my baby
Try to get a date
My boss says, no dice son
You gotta work late
Sometimes I wonder
What I`m a gonna do
But there ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues
Oh, well my Mom and Poppa told me, son
You gotta make some money
If you want to use the car
To go ridin` next Sunday
Well I didn`t go to work
Told the boss I was sick
Well you can`t use the car
Cause you didn`t work a lick
Sometimes I wonder
What I`m a gonna do
But there ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues
I`m gonna take two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
I`m gonna take my problem
To the United Nations
Well I called my congressman
And he said, whoa
I`d like to help you son
But you`re too young to vote
Sometimes I wonder
What I`m a gonna do
But there ain`t no cure
For the summertime blues
