I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler
About a-workin' all summer just to try to raise a dollar
Every time I call my baby and ask her for a date
My boss says, "No dice, son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well, my mom and papa told me, "Son, you gotta make some money
If you wanna use the car to go ridin' next Sunday"
Well, I didn't go to work, told the boss I was sick
"Now, you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'm a-gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem to the United Nation
Well, I called my congressman and he said, quote
"I'd like to help you, son, but you're too young to vote"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
