if the world didn't spin

There's a squirrel on a ledge there's a bird in a tree

And try as they might they will never agree

The Tennessee sun feels so good on my skin

Well I guess we'd fall off if the world didn't spin

Well I went to the store for an oyster or two

A couple more beers and I'll kick off my shoes

Trim up my toenails or piss in the wind

(I don't know - I'm always pissing in the wind)

Well I guess we'd fall off if the world didn't spin

Well my lover's so crazy she laughs when I cry

She's happy, she's sad, and I never know why

We fight all the battles but nobody wins

Well I guess we'd fall off if the world didn't spin

We'd go round and round and round and round

and round and round and round and round

We'd go - (it's kinda boring, ain' it?)

We'd go up and down and up and down

and up and down

There ain't no place else to go

Well you arrive as a baby all goofy and soft

Then you're old and you're wrinkled and no better off

So do what you must - you can't do it again

(Them bastards won't let you do it again)

Well I guess we'd fall off if the world didn't spin
