Summertime, time, time, child, the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' now
Hey, the cotton, Lord, the cotton is high, Lord so high
Your dad is rich and your mom's so good lookin', babe
She's looking good now
Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
No, no, no, no, don't you cry, don't you cry
One of these mornin's, a you're gonna rise, rise up singin'
You're gonna spread your wings, child
And take, take to the sky, Lord the sky
Until that mornin', honey, nothin's going to harm you now
No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no .... don't you cry
