Mother And I

歌詞

Me and she were sitting on the edge And a boat was going by and I was thinking to myself My god I would like to take that ride When I included her in my imaginary plans Left but nothing short of a guilt stricken man Trying to find a way to make amends Then my shoe slipped off and had fallen in Like a lot of other stuff I imagine And if I was a pirate diver I could swim all the way down And find her something nice at the bottom of that water Give it to her maybe to apologize sorta But it's just more stuff Wait, wait for me, wait for me When mother gets back Nature breaks me When we got up from that river bed I took her by the arm and said let's get going Cause them clouds seem to be getting together for a mean one We'll walk on down to that diner I've got some change and nothing would be finer Cause I haven't had myself a coffee bean in a long, long time She said what about your shoe? I said that don't matter I'll just wear my spare It don't make a matching pair but I don't care Cause it's just more stuff Wait, wait for me, wait for me When mother gets back Nature breaks me No fair I let you ride for free We were going down the highway in my black Marathon When I looked out at the western horizon And there was the biggest twister I swear I ever did see I pulled it on over and said everybody out Everybody out so we can get a good look at this sucker And then somebody goes That there is the finger of God touching down on Earth And we're all gonna die And my man said I don't necessarily know about all that But I know one thing We're in for one hell of a ride I love this stuff Wait, wait for me, wait for me When mother gets back Nature breaks me No fair I let you ride for free
