Well Lord I got to raise a fuss, Lord I got to raise a holler
I been working all summer just to try and earn a dollar
Well Lord I tried to call my baby, I tried to get a date...
 [bad word] ]
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
Lord there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well my mom and papa told me: "Son you gotta make some money"
"Well if you wanna use the car go riding next Sunday"
Well Lord I didn't go to work I told the boss I was sick
He said...
 [bad word] 

I gotta take three weeks, I gotta have a fun vacation
I gotta take my problem to the United Nations
I done told my congressman and he said quote
"Dig this, boy..."
 [bad word] 

Ow!

I gotta take three weeks, I gotta have a fun vacation
I gotta take my problem to the United Nations
I done told my congressman and he said quote
"Dig this, boy..."
 [bad word] 

Whoa no, there ain't no cure!
