George Gershwin [작곡,피아노]

They're writing songs of love, but not for me
A lucky star's above, but nor for me
With love to lead the way, I've found more clouds of gray
than any Russian play could guarantee

I was a fool to fall and get that way,
Heigh-ho! Alas! and also, lack-a-day!
Although I can't dismiss the mem'ry of her kiss
I guess she's not for me

Summertime,
and the living is easy
Fish are jumping
and the cotton is high.
Oh, your daddy is rich
and your mamma is good- looking
So hush little baby,
don't you cry.
One of these mornings,
you're going to rise up singing.
then you'll spread your wings
and you'll take to the sky.
But till that morning,
there's a’nothing can harm you
with daddy and mammy standing by.

Summertime, and the livin' is easy

So hush little baby, Don't you cryOne of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there ain't nothin' can harm you
With Daddy and Mammy standin' byOne of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
And you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky
But 'til that morning, there ain't nothin can harm you

In de latest paris styles.

Bess
You low, crawlin' hound! get away from my door, I tells
You, leave it, you rattlesnake. dat's what you is,
A rattlesnake!

There's a saying old
Says that love is blind,
Still we're often told,
"Seek and ye shall find."
So I'm going to seek
A certain lad
I've had in mind.Looking ev'rywhere,
Haven't found him yet;
He's the big affair
I cannot forget.
Only man I ever
Think of with regret.I'd like to add his initial to my monogram.
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?There's a somebody I'm longing to see.
I hope that he
Turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me.I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood.
I know I could
Always be good
To one who'll watch over me.Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome,
To my heart he carries the key.
Won't you tell him please to put on some speed,
Follow my lead,
Oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me.

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll fly to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry
