Summertime Blues Lyrics
About workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar
Everytime I call my baby, to try to get a date
My boss says, "No dice, son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
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 gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
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"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
About workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
No there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

wasnt this song first done by ed cochren (i dont know how to spell his name)... anyway its cool

Well, this song was actually first done by The Who. Stupid country taking away from rock.

Um, no. The Who covered it. It was orginally done by Eddie Cochran, a country-pop singer.

Yep, Eddie Cochran.

well i like this "stupid country" version Brad! and alan jackson is awesome.

yes, Alan Jackson is awesome! And this song is so true, I'm having the summer-time blues.

Where does George Thorogood fits into this song. I've got a version of him singing it and sounds like the original to me. I might be wrong.. But a great song though.
You are wrong. Eddie Cochran does the original, Blue Cheer does the best version (and possibly the most famous?).
