The Summertime Blues

Well, if you are having the Summertime Blues, you are not alone. It is Summer, sign and awning companies are in the middle of busy season. It figures it happens to be the season that your kids are home from school, the pools are open, the cookouts and get together are bountiful and you are working. If you take a break, you get behind. This reminds me of the Summertime Blues song by Eddie Cochran (or Alan Jackson depending on your collection.) It is one of those songs that sign and awning companies can relate too. This should be the theme song of our industry...the song that plays as we enter the ring. 

Well, I'm a'gonna raise a fuss,
An' I'm a'gonna raise a holler
I've been working all summer
Just to try and earn a dollar
Well I went to the boss
Said I had a date
The boss said "No dice, son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a'gonna do
There ain't no cure for the summertime blues

Well my mom and poppa told me
"Son you gotta earn some money,
If you want to use the car
To go out next Sunday."

Well I didn't go to work
I told the boss I was sick
He said "You can't use the car
'cause you didn't work a lick."
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a'gonna do
Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues.
