Lyrics

Summertime
Whoa, the living is easy
Fish are jumping
And the cotton is high, oh yeah
Your mother's rich
Oh, and your father is good looking, yes, he is
I said you hush little baby
Oh no please, please don't cry no more, no more
Ooh, one of these mornings
I know, you are gonna rise up singing
Spread your little wings
And will, will up in the sky
But untill that morning
I know, I know there's nothing gonna harm you
Because your mamma and your daddy
Oh, they are standing somewhere by
I know they are standing somewhere by
Oh, yeah
One of these mornings
I know, you are gonna rise up singing
Spread your little wings
Fly away away up in the sky
But untill that morning
I know, there's nothing gonna harm you
Because your mamma and daddy
They are standing somewhere by
Only time, only time, only time
Summertime
Only time
