I′m a′gonna raise a fuss
I′m a′gonna raise a holler
I′ve been working all summer
Just to try and earn a dollar
Well I went to the boss
The boss said No dice son you gotta work late
Sometimes I wonder what I′m a′gonna do
There ain′t no cure for
the summertime blues
Well my mom and father told me
Son you gotta earn some money
If you want to use the car
To go out next Sunday
Well I didn′t go to work
I told the boss I was sick
He said You can′t use the car
′cause you didn′t work late
Sometimes I wonder what I′m a′gonna do
Cause there ain′t no cure for
the summertime blues
Gonna take two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problems
To the United Nations
Well I went to my congressman
He said I′d like to help you son
But you′re too young to vote
Sometimes I wonder what I′m a′gonna do
Cause there ain′t no cure for
the summertime blues
