Lyrics
Around Town
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.
If you get yourself in a fight
If that's the way you wanna live your life
You can get yourself connected
To the world that we are thrown to, yeah
But all I need is somewhere to lay
Somewhere to lay my head on
I need someone to love in the middle of the day
I want someone to be, and someone to drive around town
I need someone to love when the chips are down
Love me when the chips are down
Will you love me when the chips are down?
Love me when the chips are down
Could you love me when the world is crashing all around?
You can try and be someone you're not
If that's the river that you want to cross
You can do the life of a bohemian
Or you can choose the material world
But all I need is somewhere to lay
Somewhere to lay my head on
I need someone to love in the middle of the day
I want someone to be
And someone to drive around town
I need someone to love when the chips are down
Love me when the chips are down
Will you love me when the chips are down?
Love me when the chips are down
Could you love me when the world is crashing all around?
All around
All I need is somewhere to lay
Somewhere to lay my head on
I need someone to love in the middle of the day
I want someone to be
And someone to drive around town
