Summertime, time, time,
| Child, the living's easy.
| Fish are jumping out
| And the cotton, Lord,
| Cotton's high, Lord, so high.
|
| Your daddy's rich
| And your ma is so good-looking, baby.
| She's looking good now,
| Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
| No, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't you cry.
| Aahhhh!
|
| One of these mornings
| You're gonna rise, rise up singing,
| You're gonna spread your wings,
| Child, and take, take to the sky,
| Lord, the sky.
|
| Until that morning
| Honey, n-n-nothing's going to harm you now,
| No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
| No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
| No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
| Don't you cry,
| Don't you cry,
| Cry.
