[E]
I'm a goner as a fuss, I'm a goner as a holler
[A] [E] I'm kinda working off some money to try to earn a dollar
[A] Every time I call my baby and try to get a date
[Em] My boss says, no dice son, you gotta [A] work a leg
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
[E] But there ain't enough Q for the summertime [E] boo
[A] [E]
Well my mama and papa told me son, you gotta earn some money
If you wanna use the car to go around next Sunday
[A] Well I didn't go to work, no the boss always said
You can't use the car cause [F#] you didn't work a leg
[A] Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
[E] But there ain't enough Q for the summertime boo
[A] [E] I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
[A] [E] Well I [A] called my godless man and he said, whoa
I'd [E] like to help you son, but you're too young [A] to vote
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
But [E] there ain't enough Q for the summertime boo
