Summertime - Ella Fitzgerald

The song "Summertime" by Ella Fitzgerald describes the carefree days of summer. It depicts summer as a time when living is easy, fish are jumping and cotton is high. It tells a child that as long as their mother and father are there to protect them, nothing can harm them until the day they grow wings and fly away to seek their dreams.

Summer time, And the livin' is easy
Ebm C° F7
Fish are jumpin', And the cotton is high
Bbm7 Ebm Ab7
Oh your daddy's rich, And your mama's good lookin'
C#7M C° F7 Bbm7 C° F7
So hush little baby, Don't you cry

Bbm7 B7(9)
One of these mornings, You're gonna rise up singin'
Ebm C° F7 Bbm7
You're spread your wings, And soar to the sky
Bbm7 Ebm Ab7
But 'till that mornin', There ain't nothin' to harm you
C#7M C° F7 Bbm7 C° F7
With your mama and your daddy, Standin' by
