Well, I'm gonna raise a fuss
I'm gonna raise a holler
About a working all summer
Just to try to earn a dollar

Well, time I called my baby
Try to get a date
My boss says, "No dice, son
You gotta work late"

Sometimes I wonder
What I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Oh, well my Mom and Poppa told me
“Son, you gotta make some money
If you want to use the car
To go ridin' next Sunday”

Well, I didn't go to work
Told the boss I was sick

'Cause you didn't work a lick

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
I'm gonna take my problem
To the United Nations

Well, I called my congressman
And he said, “Whoa
I'd like to help you son
But you're too young to vote”

Sometimes I wonder
What I'm a gonna do?
But there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Eddie Cochran biography

Raymond Edward "Eddie" Cochran (October 3, 1938–April 17, 1960) was an American rock and roll musician and an important influence on popular music during the late 1950s, early 1960s. Unfortunately, time has not accorded him quite the same respect as other early rockabilly pioneers, such as Buddy Holly, Gene Vincent or even Ricky Nelson. This is partially attributable to his very brief lifespan as a star. He had only a couple of big hits before dying in a car crash during a British tour in 1960.

Early life and career: Cochran was born in Albert Lea, Minnesota. He took piano lessons in school, and then switched to guitar, playing the country music he heard on the radio. In 1955, Cochran's family moved to Bell Gardens, California. As his guitar playing improved, he formed a band with two friends from his junior high school. During a show featuring many performers at an American Legion hall, he met Hank Cochran (not related), and soon they started p.....MORE.....(full Eddie Cochran biography) ←
