Lyrics

SAME PLANET, DIFFERENT WORLDS

I?VE BEEN READIN? ALL NIGHT
ABOUT VENUS AND MARS
AND I?VE GOTTA SAY
THAT THE CLOSER I LOOK
AT THAT BEST SELLIN? BOOK
I AGREE WITH GOOD OLE DOCTOR GRAY
BUT THAT?S JUST THE WAY
IT?S ALWAYS BEEN
WOMEN ARE WOMEN
AND MEN ARE MEN
WE JUST LOOK AT LIFE
IN OUR OWN PECULIAR WAY

SHE?S FROM VENUS
AND HE?S FROM MARS
BOTH OF THEM WISHIN?
ON DIFFERENT STARS
THAT?S THE WAY IT IS
BETWEEN BOYS AND GIRLS
SAME PLANET, DIFFERENT WORLDS

AIN?T IT FUNNY HOW MEN AND WOMEN DISAGREE
ON MATTERS OF THE HEART
THEY MIGHT APPEAR TO BE AS CLOSE
AS CLOSE CAN BE
BUT THEY?RE STILL WORLDS APART
SHE WANTS TO TALK THINGS OVER
AND BE ROMANCED
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO TALKIN?
HE JUST CAN?T DANCE
HE WANTS TO GET TO THE FINISH
BEFORE THEY?VE HAD A CHANCE TO START

CHORUS

NOW IT?S THE SAME OLE STORY
SINCE THE WORLD BEGAN
SHE DON?T KNOW
WHY HE DON?T UNDERSTAND
MEANWHILE HE?S THINKIN?
SHE?S GOTTA BE FROM OUTER SPACE

CHORUS

Great voice, great country sound, and great instrumentation!

instrumentals are great, voice is good it all comes together nicely

Building on the theme of a well-known book makes the song easy to identify with. Both men and women can relate. Nice humor. Fun song.
