(eddie cochran)

Well Im gonna raise a fuss and Im gonna raise a holler
Ive been working all summer just to try to earn a dollar
Well the time will come when baby, I try to get a date
My boss says [no dice, girl, you gotta work late.]

Sometimes I wonder what Im a-gonna do
But there aint no cure for the summertime blues

Well my mom and brother told me girl you gotta make some money
If you want to use the car to go riding next sunday
Well I didnt go to work--i told the boss I was sick
[you cant use the car cause you didnt work late.]

Sometimes I wonder what Im a-gonna do
But there aint no cure for the summertime blues

Im gonna take two weeks--gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem to the united nations
Well I called the congressman and he said quote
[Id like to help you honey but youre too young to vote.]

Sometimes I wonder what Im a-gonna do
And there aint no cure for the summertime blues
Aint no cure
No no
