Don't Jump Salty
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't get so malicious
Don't get so far out
Stop waving your arms in the air
Sit down for a minute
Let me explain something to you
Don't get this narrow when the street is wide
Don't get lost now
Double cross now
Ain't cross over to the other side
Don't get scared now
Keep it there now
You never know what you might find
Keep this one thing deep inside your mind
Mama don't you jump salty
Mama don't you jump salty
Mama don't you jump salty
Don't jump on me
It just can't be
I hate it when you jump on me
You know I can't see the forest for the trees
Don't be up tight now
Stay out of side now
Can't stop the birds from messing with the bees
Oh baby, don't you try now
They'll get by now
Sure as the mountain gets high
You'll do much better when it's do or die
Mama don't you jump salty
Mama don't you jump salty
Mama don't you jump salty
Don't jump on me
It just can't be
Sure as a mountain get high
You'll do much better when it's do or die
Mama don't you jump salty
Mama don't you jump salty
Mama don't you jump salty
Don't jump on me
It just can't be
Now we're breaking down
