Summertime
And the living is easy
Fish are jumping
And the cotton is high
Oh you're daddy's rich
And your mum is good looking
So hush little baby
Don't you cry
One of these mornings
You gonna rise up singing
Then you spread your wings
And you take to the sky
But until morning
There's nothing can harm you
With daddy and mummy
Standing by
Häufig findet sich diese Schreibfassung:
Summertime, an' the livin' is easy,
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high.
Oh yo' daddy's rich an' yo' ma is good lookin',
So hush little baby, don' yo' cry.
One of these mornin's you're goin' to rise up singin',
Then you'll spread yo' wings an' you'll take to the sky.
But till that mornin' there's nothin' can harm you
With daddy and mommy standin' by.
