Summertime Blues Lyrics

Well, I'm gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar
Every time 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...

    I believe this song is about summertime, and how so many youths often struggle with feelings of boredom, especially in the summer months, when it's hot and dry.

    Well I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
    About workin' all summer just to try an' earn a dollar
    Every time 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

    And there *is* such a thing as "the summertime blues".

    This is a great cover of a great song. I like it. It's very inspiring, and very deep.
