Back In Your Life

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.

Well, take me way up north to meet your mom and dad

So they'll see that jonathan ain't quite so bad.

I want to be back in your life,

I want to be back in your life,

Baby baby baby,

Baby baby baby.

Take me to the fields you used to roam

So your pal jonathan can call them home.

When i'm back in your life,

I want to be back in your life,

Baby baby baby,

Baby baby baby.

Well, take me to your favorite covered bridge

And the road that leads high o'er the ridge.

I want to be back in your life,

I want to be back in your life,

Baby baby baby,

Baby baby.

Well, gimme a break, bang-bang, gimme a break,

Bang-bang, gimme a--well,

Show me the saddle, and show me the stirrup,

And then we'll help your daddy when he goes out for maple syrup.

I want to be back in your life,

I want to be back in your life,

Baby baby baby,

Baby.

I will wait a long time if that's what it takes

But someday i want to help your momma when she brings out the pancakes.

I want to be back in your life,

I want to be back in your life,

Baby baby,

I want to be back in your life.

And time's a-wastin', cause what once was a puppy is now a dog

And what once was a piglet is now a hog.

And i want to be back in your life,

I want to be back in your life.
