"Summertime"
(George Gershwin / Ira Gershwin / Dubose Heyward)

Summertime and the living is easy
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy's rich and your mama's good looking
So hush little baby, don't you cry

One of these mornings you're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings and take to the sky
Till that morning there's nothing can harm you
With daddy and mama standing by

One of these mornings you're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings and take to the sky
Till that morning there's nothing can harm you
So hush little baby, don't you cry

Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Leaves drifting by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life and I'm feeling good
