Sammy Davis Jr. - Summertime Lyrics






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

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

    Why did Sammy Davis Junior hasn’t got nominated for an Tony for his performance?

  3. T.... L....

    Ira probably heard this in the late 60's and thought "why didn't we think of doing a medley of 'There's A Boat' & 'I'm On My Way' in the original?" Such great music being sung by such amazing talent! Love the Gershwins & I love Sammy!

  4. S.... B....

    I think that he's the best interpreter of these songs.

  5. s.... c....

    Mr. Sammy Davis Jr., underrated as a musician, an actor, a dancer, arranger, conductor, and as a Black Pioneer!! Not appreciated at all!!

  6. J.... G....

    One of the first black plays..

  7. D.... D....

    Classic songs and acting from a great play/movie.
