Summertime Blues

I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler 
About a-workin' all summer just to try to earn a dollar 
Well one time I called my baby, tried to get 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 
 
Oh 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 gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation 
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations 
Well I called my congresman 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
