ray charles - summertime lyrics

[verse 1: ray charles]
summertime
and the livin’ is easy
oh, fish are jumpin’
and the cotton is high
oh, your daddy’s rich
and your ma, she good lookin’
so why don’t you just hush little baby
i don’t want you, i don’t want you to cry

[verse 2: ray charles]
one of these mornings
yeah, you’re gonna rise up singing
oh, you’re gonna spread your wings
and you’ll take to the sky
oh, but until that morning
there’s nothing can harm you
with your daddy and your mama
they’re gonna be standing by

[verse 3: cleo laine]
summertime
and the livin’ is easy
fish are jumping
and the cotton is high
oh, your daddy’s rich
and your ma, she’s good lookin’
so hush little baby
don’t you cry
[verse 4: cleo laine]
one of these mornings
you’re gonna rise up singing
then you’ll spread your wings
and you’ll take to the sky
but until that morning
there’s nothing can harm you
with daddy and mommy standing by

[verse 5: ray charles, cleo laine, both]
summertime (summertime)
and the livin’ is easy
(and the livin’ is, the livin’ is easy)
yes, fish are jumpin’ (ooh, they’re jumpin’)
and the cotton is high (high)
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, your daddy’s rich, yeah
(mmm, your daddy’s rich, daddy’s rich)
and your ma is good lookin’
(and your ma, she’s good lookin’)
so hush little baby (ooh, hush, hush)
and don’t you cry

[outro: ray charles, cleo laine]
your daddy and mommy is standing by
your daddy and your mama, daddy and your mama
yeah, they’re standing by
