Summer time
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Oh your daddy's rich
And your ma is good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You gonna rise up singin'
Yes you spread your wings
And you take to the sky
But till that mornin'
There's nothin' can hold you
Yeah lay down by me
Stand by

Summer time
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Oh your daddy's rich
And your ma is good lookin'
So hush little baby
Baby don't you cry

Don't cry
