And the living is easy
Fish are jumping
And the cotton is high
Your daddys rich
And your mammas good looking
So hush little baby
Don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Spread your wings
And take to the sky
Until that morning
There's nothing to harm you
With mammy and daddy
Standing by
Mmmmmm summertime
And the living is easy
Fish are jumping
And the cotton is high
Your daddys rich
And your mammas good looking
So hush little baby
Don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singing
Spread your wings
And take to the sky
Until that morning
There is nothing to harm you
With mummy and daddy
Standing by
With mummy and daddy standing by
It's summertime
Ooooh the living is oh so easy
