* 7-bar intro

Summertime, and the livin' is easy.
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high.
Your Daddy's rich and your Mummy's good-lookin',
So hush, little baby, don't you cry.

* 3-bar break

All these morning, you're gonna rise up singing,
Then you're gonna spread your wings and take the sky.
But 'till that morning, there's nothing can harm you
With Daddy and Mammy standing by.

* 2-bar break

Summertime, and the livin' is easy.
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high.
Your Daddy's rich and your Mummy's good-lookin',
So hush, little baby, don't you cry,
So hush, little baby, don't you cry.
