Lyrics
Song Of The South
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.
Let it flow
Let it flow
Let it go into the sea with me in it
Let it fly
Let it fly
Let it glide into the sky with me up there
With me, with me up there
With me up there, with me up there
With me, with me up there
With me up there, with me up there
Maybe you're hurt, maybe you cried in love
Maybe you're living too rough
Maybe you're giving too much
Maybe the people want more
Maybe you're askin' "what for," "what for"
Oh, do da day
Let it snow
Let it snow
Let it fall unto the ground and cover me
Let it fall unto the ground and cover me
Maybe it's wrong
Maybe it's right tonight
Maybe we'll open the door
Maybe it's opened before
Maybe you're giving too much
Maybe you're living too rough. oooh
Oh, do da day
Repeat
Maybe the people want more
Maybe you're asking what for
Oh, do da day
Oh, do da day
