Billie Holiday - Summertime (That's Life I Guess 1936-1937)
Summertime
and the livin' is easy
fish are jumpin
and the cotton is high
oh your daddy's rich
and your ma is good lookin'
so hush little baby
don't you cry
One of these mornin's
you're gonna rise up singin'
yes you spread your wings
and you take to the skys
but till' that mornin'
theres nothin' that can harm you
yes your daddy and mammy
stand and wave you goodbye
summertime
and the livin' is easy
fish are jumpin'
and the cotton is high
oh your daddy's rich
and you ma is good lookin'
so hush little baby
baby don't you cry
don't you cry

I have always thought this was the worse song on AutoAmerican! But I have changed my thinking after hearing this!!
I really like seeing you doing these songs from AutoAmerican! I also thought this was my least favorite album but over the years I have found myself listening it to more than the others. Are you going to tackle T-BIrds in the future?

Wow! What a great LP to grow up to! AUTOAMERICAN is one of the COOLEST most DIVERSE albums ever! And apart from all of the cool songs let us not forget it also has TWO of the BIGGEST singles of all time: RAPTURE and THE TIDE IS HIGH.
