[Verse 1]
It's summertime
And the living is easy
The fish are jumping
And the cotton is high, oh yeah
Your daddy's rich
And your mama's good looking
So hush, hush little baby
Don't, don't you cry

[Verse 2]
One of these mornings
Oh, you're going to rise up singing
Oh, then you'll spread your wings
And you take to the sky
But till that morning, yeah
There ain't nothing gonna harm you
So hush, so hush little baby
Now don't, don't you cry, hey

[Verse 2 excerpt]
Hey now one of these mornings
One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Oh, rise up singing

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
One of these mornings
One of these mornings, one of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing, ooh
You're going to spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
Oh, but till that morning, morning
Ooh baby, ain't nothing can go harm you
With your daddy and mommy
Daddy and mommy, daddy and mommy standing by

Paul McCartney

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
