Song Lyrics
It`s summertime
And the living is easy
Fish are jumping
And the cotton is high
Your daddy is rich
And your mommy`s good looking
So hush pretty baby, don`t you cry
One of these mornings
You`re gonna wake up singing
You`re gonna spread your wings
Take to the sky
But till that morning
There`s just not a thing that can harm you
With daddy and mommy standing by
