Well I'm gonna raise a fuss and I'm gonna raise a holler I've been working all summer just to try to earn a dollar Well the time will come when baby, I try to get a date My boss says ['No dice, girl, you gotta work late.']
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well my mom and brother told me girl you gotta make some money If you want to use the car to go riding next Sunday Well I didn't go to work--I told the boss I was sick [You can't use the car cause you didn't work late.]
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues
I'm gonna take two weeks--gonna have a fine vacation Gonna take my problem to the United Nations Well I called the congressman and he said quote ['I'd like to help you honey but you're too young to vote.']
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do And there ain't no cure for the summertime blues Ain't no cure No no
