Summertime 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're gonna rise up singin'
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
Till that mornin'
There's a-nothin' can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin' by
I got plenty of nothin' and nothin's plenty for me
I got no car, got no mule, got no misery
The folks with plenty of plenty got a lock on the door
Afraid somebody's a-gonna rob 'em while he's out a-makin' more
What for?
Ain't got no lock on the door, that's no way to be
They can steal the rug from the floor, that's okay with me
'Cause the things that are prized in this life are free
Oh, I got plenty of nothin' and nothin's plenty for me
I got my gal, got my dog, got heaven the whole day long
Got my gal, got my dog, got my dog
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singin'
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
But till that mornin'
There's a-nothin' can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin' by
With daddy and mammy standin' by
