Billie Holiday - Summertime (78rpm Version) Lyrics

Lyrics Summertime (78rpm Version) - Billie Holiday

Summertime

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 mornin's

You're goin' to rise up singin'

Yes you'll spread your wings

And you'll take to the sky

But til' that mornin'

Theres nothin' can harm you

With daddy and mammy

Standin' by

Summertime

And the livin' is easy

Fish are jumpin'

And the cotton is high

Oh your daddy's rich

And you ma is good lookin'

So hush little baby

Don't you cry

Writer(s): Ira Gershwin, George Gershwin, Dorothy Heyward, Dubose Edwin Heyward
