about

Caught in the rain for only one minute ruins the day
Caught in the rain for only one minute ruins the day
If I'm gonna get high bring on the bud
If I'm gonna get dirty show me the mud
When I go there I go there all the way

Peaceful waterway winding through the park
Peaceful waterway winding through the park
Low-riding car, slow moving wheels
Hour-glass blonde clicking her heels
Be leery of anything after dark

Baby so hungry poppa don't know what to do
Baby so hungry poppa don't know what to do
I remember a lady who drew up a sign
Buy my baby to keep it from dyin'
Well, I'm not there yet, and I hope I never get there, too

Of all the things that should come back to me
Of all the things that should come back to me
In the low light of the egress
You're standing in your cottony dress
In the basement, in the cold A-C

It took hardly nothing to get to right now
Hardly nothing to get to right now
Think of all the time you spend
Thinking of sunnier sun around the bend
Just enjoy whatever you got, however how
