I think the original has two verses only.

Why would you want to add verses to a Gershwin song?

Robb Johnson, did a version see below:

Summertime

Summertime and the living ain't easy
Big fish run things, like they own the whole sky
If you're Daddy ain't rich, they're going to work you for peanuts
But hush little baby, don't you cry

All of these big fish they have their big fish meeting
They're going to help the poor, the best that they can, oh yeah
Big their action plan, it's just got two things missing
Plan got no action, action got no plan

One of these mornings, you're going rise up righteous
You're going spread your wings, you're going to retake the sky
But until that morning, they're going work you for peanuts
But hush little baby, don't you cry

Summertime, living should be so easy

Thanks folks, maybe people just add some more blues to the end of it, as they feel, who knows.
