[Intro]
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer just tryin' to earn a dollar
Well, I tried to call my baby, tried to get a date
My boss said, "No, dice, kid you gotta work late"

[Chorus]
Sometime I wonder what I'm gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

[Verse 2]
Well, my mama and papa told me, son, you gotta make some money
If want to use the car to go ridin' next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work, I told the boss I was sick
"You can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick"

[Chorus]
Sometime I wonder what I'm gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna take two weeks, I'm gonna have a fine vacation
I'm 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"
[Chorus]
Sometime I wonder what I'm gonna do
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
