Lyrics
The day is hot
The sun is high
A little birdie just flew on by
Song's playing on the radio
Smooth, sexy and the right kind of slow
I'm Watchin watchin the world go by
Filled up
A frosty glass
Took a sip and made it last
I tell ya water never tasted so good
Wouldn't change this moment even if I could
I'm Watchin watchin the world go by
7 days a week DA
Tryin to make ends meet
Why even a gallon of gas
Is getting to be a pain in (ass)
Turned of my telephone
Gunna pretend that nobody's home
Lights are off - the blinds all drawn
I got the picnic blanket laid out on the lawn
I'm watchin watchin the world go by
7 days a week DA
Tryin to make ends meet
Why even a gallon of gas
Is getting to be a pain in (ass)
I figure it's just one day
& if I'm wrong well I'll have to pay
Throwin? in the towel from this rat race
Takin a break slowin down the pace
I'm watchin watchin the world go by
