Thinking about Sarah
that's heaven to me You don't know my girl but she's right as right can be It's like yonder mockingbird in the cottonwood tree You don't change that, no it's meant to be And that's the soul of a southern girl Gonna set you free When we go walking on a summer's eve We take the long way home that's guaranteed Thinking about Sarah that's heaven to me Thinking about my Sarah girl she is love to me Sitting there by her window sunshine in her hair Sun can't help but love her in fact I think he's jealous of her Because he's just passing through and she is ever Sarah And that's the soul of a southern girl Gonna set you free Sure as that river is gonna run to the sea Sure as the sun's gonna shine she's thre for me Thinking about Sarah that's heaven to me thinking about my Sarah girl she is love she is love Like those lazy willows playong in the summer breeze She's got that that easy rhythm swinging right along with them But they're just melodies in the symphony called Sarah She sets me free And that's the soul of my southern girl And she sets me free |

Take what you need, just leave me a key and go
I'm all out of answers except where I don't know This hanging around is dragging us down, you know Everything changes, I guess we let it go Take care of yourself, you'll learn to live again Wary but wiser in the end, perhaps, oh well Just go I'm all out of answers, but yes, the answers no Here comes old chaos, now there's a friend And he'll have us laughing in the end, but crying now Just go Everything changes, oh yes, well there you go, there you go |

Oh sleeping beauty, it's time to wake up
And get ready for a brand new day It's the new millennium and time to rise And maybe think in a different way Take a deep breath, have a look around Are you happy with what you see? If your body's fit and your mind is clear No reason you ought not to be If some joker's trying to sell you some new sport drink Just tell him that you'll have to pass You're paying three times as much for this bottle of water As you're paying for a gallon of gas 'Cause everything counts even small amounts When you're working towards a goal It's not about simple thirsts or hungers But satisfying your soul Get on the natch and don't talk back Get on the natch, get off your booty Get on the natch, we'll allarootie I can't tell you what to do, do, do You eat a bucket of grease and a can full of sugar You're adding to the critical mass Pretty soon you're gonna need a new wardrobe To cover your big new ass I ain't saying slim is beautiful Or you got to be some showdog But go down to the gym or find a place to swim And ask the doctor if you can't jog If not your body, your memory Think back to what it's like as a kid When you're running and climbing and jumping around Having fun with the things you did It's not easy, it's hard at first When you're breaking the old routine Get off your behind, cut some TV time Try reading that magazine Get on the natch and don't talk back Get back in here you little Get on the natch, we'll allarootie I can't tell you what to do, do, do You better watch out, it's alright to cry But we don't like nobody whines And being cool ain't acting son It's like read between the lines Try a little dignity, have self respect And you'll reap just what you sow If you're not sure about something don't worry about it Just tell 'em, "I don't know" Get on the natch, don't talk back Get on the natch and get your feet off the couch Get on the natch, we'll allarootie I can't tell you what to do, do, do Get on the natch Get back in there you little Get on the natch and don't talk back Get on the natch, we'll allarootie I can't tell you what to do, do, do Get on the natch, [Incomprehensible] Get on the natch Slam that back door one more time, we'll allarootie Get on the natch, get off your booty Get on the natch, good God Bernice Get on the natch Slam that back door one more time, we'll allarootie I can't tell you what to do, do, do Get on the natch, don't talk back |

Thanks to you
I've got a reason to get outta bed make a move or two Thanks to you There's a net below cause otherwise well I don't know And thanks to you There are promises of laughs and loves and labyrinths And reason to suspect that I'm meant for this A smile a song a tender kiss Thanks to you Thanks to you There's a thing I think I know I really mean or variations on that theme Thanks to you I have time to turn time to cool and time to burn And thanks to you There's something suddenly too good to miss In other words a way through this And just when one might feel so perfectly alone There's someone else's stuff to trip on besides ones own Thanks to you One can only guess what happens next As it is I balk and stumble through a world gone quite absurd Dodging shadows lurching through the rain I'm not complaining but I'm caught With or without you I'd have to get through this anyway So where does the genius go when business is slow And even dreaming has a way of scheming to get you down Likely off at some chateau so how would he know It gets as lonely up there as anywhere Where moving over to make room once seemed impossible It's not impossible That one handed applause That unspoken word That treefall in the forest someone finally heard Thanks to you |
