Summertime, and the living is easy now, baby
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high
Your daddy's rich and your mama's good-looking now, baby
So hush, little baby, don't you cry
One of these mornings, you gonna rise up singing
You gonna spread your wings and take to the sky
Until that morning, there is nothing gonna harm you
'Cause your mama and daddy is standing by

I said hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, pretty baby
I said hush, hush, hush, hush, oh, pretty baby
I said hush, hush, hush, hush, hush, pretty baby
Hush, hush, hush, hush, oh, pretty baby
