Summertime,
|
Child, you're living easy.
|
Fish are, fish are jumping out
|
And the cotton, Lord, cotton's high, Lord, so high.
|
|
Your daddy's rich
|
And your ma, honey I think she's a mighty good-looking babe.
|
I think she's looking pretty fine to me now.
|
Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
|
No, no, no, no, no, don't you cry.
|
Don't you cry!!!
|
|
One of these mornings
|
Child, you'll rise up singing,
|
An' since you gotta go, honey, spread your wings,
|
You can take, take the sky,
|
Lord, the sky.
|
|
Until that morning,
|
Honey, n-n-no, nothing's gonna harm you babe.
|
I said, honey, no one's ever gonna let you down,
|
They wouldn't do it.
|
Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
|
No, no, no, no, no, don't you cry.
|
No!
|
Cry.
|
