Laughin' till it pisses everybody off Pullin' up my dress at a dinner meeting Kissin' till my lips are ready to fall off Screamin' all night then just say I'm singin' Yeah these are some of my favorite things Gold butterflies and gum on a string Yeah these are some of my favorite things But doin' nothin' is my favorite one Cashin' in on the glory of my biggest mistakes Fading in the grass basking in the sunlight Go and say to mama, "I'll just drive ninety eight" Hold her in my arms tell her, "I'll be alright" Breath in faith and hope and a big fat cigarette Drowning in the wine having no regrets Yeah these are some of my favorite things Don't ask me why Gold butterflies and gum on a string Get me high Yeah these are some of my favorite things But doin' nothin' is my favorite one And It's not the life I thought it would be But I'll be alright, I know, I will be, so long to circumstance Cashin' in on the glory of my biggest mistakes I'm fadin' now at last baskin' in sweet sunlight Yeah these are some of my favorite things Don't ask me why Gold butterflies and gum on a string Get me high Yeah these are some of my favorite things But loving you son is my very favorite one
