SUMMERTIME - Ella Fitzgerald

Jazzy Ballade International Ecoute


Ella Fitzgerald - Summertime

1960

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 mornings
You're gonna rise up singin'
Yes, you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
Mm, but 'til that mornin'
There's nothin' can harm you
Yes, with Daddy and Mommy standin' by

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

(Oh, don't you cry, oh, don't you cry)
Don't you cry (oh, don't you cry, oh, don't you cry)
