Lyrics
By the River
Keep em on your feet
I'll make it easy as it looks
but , to a man so far away from what you planned
I used to work a job and books but now I lay down hooks
I'm like no other you'll discover raise your hands
Get down, I'm a pseudo-pro and I'm sure to stay if you're good to go
though I talk real fast and I think real slow
Chorus:
Take this down by the river, I'll forgive her if you let me bring this down
Take this down by the river, I'll forgive her if you let me bring this down
Homespun buzz, when the willing is the must, first impression first impression second sight
she said ?hey hey hey, seems you got a lot to say?
well I got love and I got life and I got fight
Take heart cause I've done the math, and a kiss from her's such an autograph
that a second chance just made me want to laugh...
Chorus:
If I could get by on my looks you know I think I'd have it made
but I'll get massive being passive when the vibe is all the rage
