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.

C'mon

Baby, we could go back to the basics

Trailer park love

Wearing them asics and gold

I can speak Spanish

You can sing for the neighbours

You've been pretty stupid

Ever since you got famous

Uh-oh, uh-oh

Wrong side of the tracks, boy

Uh-oh, uh-oh

If only we'd go back, boy

'Cause nobody does it like you

I like the way that you move

That's why I never go through

With leaving you

Everybody's sayin' that you're not good for me

Your friends all swear that you've changed

But I still keep it o. G

This tune could be a reminder

Of how it all used to be

So shut up, and come on

Sing our song

And let's go back to the basics

Let's go back to the basics, baby

Back to the basics

When you're not wasted

I know you'll see

Baby, we could go back to the basics

We were best friends

Crazy and shameless in love

You can mow the lawn for money

I can make you playlists

You bought me dime packs

Felt like we were famous

Uh-oh, uh-oh

Best I ever had, boy

Uh-oh, uh-oh

Can you remember that, boy?

Nobody knew what we knew

We had it figured out too

Us against the world just

Me and you, ooh-ooh

Everybody's sayin' that you're not good for me

Your friends all swear that you've changed

But I still keep it o. G

This tune could be a reminder

Of how it all used to be

So shut up, and come on

Sing our song

And let's go back to the basics

Let's go back to the basics, baby

Back to the basics

When you're not wasted

I know you'll see

We could drive forever, my baby

We could leave it all and never look back

If you wanted heaven, baby

Sit back in my pink Cadillac

Everybody's sayin' that you're not good for me

Your friends all swear that you've changed

But I still keep it o. G

This tune could be a reminder

Of how it all used to be

So shut up, and come on

Sing our song

Ooh, ooh, oooh

Everybody's sayin' that you're not good for me

Your friends all swear that you've changed

But I still keep it o. G

This tune could be a reminder

Of how it all used to be

So shut up, and come on

Sing our song

And let's go back to the basics

Let's go back to the basics, baby

Back to the basics

When you're not wasted

I know you'll see
