Carolyn Hester singing Summertime (1961)
Amazing Jazz-turned-Folk song and singer I was so sad to
see barely anything of young Carolyn on Youtube, or
just the internet in general. So Enjoy!
Here's are the Lyrics to Her/This version:
"Summertime,
The livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy's rich
And your ma is good lookin'
Hush little baby
Don't you cry
One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And take to the sky
Until that morning
Nothing, nothings gonna harm you
With daddy, mommy standing by
Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high
Oh, Your daddy's rich
And your ma she's so good lookin'
Hush little baby
Don't you cry"
