Mtíslk: George Gershwin
Texti: Dtt Bose Heyward
Summcrtime an’ thc livin’ is casy
Fish are jumpin’, an’ thc cotton is high.
Oh, yo’ dacldy’s rich,
An’ yo’ ma is goodlookin’,
So hush, littlc baby, don’ you cry.
Onc of thcse mornin’s you goin’
to rise up singin’,
Thcn you’ll spread yo‘ wings an’ you'll
rake the sky.
But till that mornin’ there’s a nothin’
can harm you
Witli Daddy an’ Mammy standin’ by.

SEVEN LONELY DAYS
Sevcn lonely days make one lonely veek,
Scvcn lonely nights make one lonelv nie.
Ever since the time you told me
we were through.
Seven lonely days I cried for you.
Sevcn hankies blue I filled
with my tears,
Sevcn letters too I filled with my fears.
Guess it never pays to make your
lover blue.
Sevcn lonely days I cried and cricd
for you.
Corus
Oh, my darling, you’re crying,
Boo, hoo, hoo, hoo,
There’s no use in denying I cried
for you.
It was your favorite pastime makmg
me blue.
Last week was the last time I cried
for you.
