Lyrics
NEXT TO YOU
A
Got no bird in my hand
No shine on my shoe
Gotta 40 year plan
That I'm much too lazy to do
But I'll see it through
Yeah my wallet's a joke but it's nice being broke next to you
A2
Life ain't always fair
It's just one shade of green
And this getting nowhere
Is my daily routine
I've got no place to be
So I hope you don't mind wasting all of your time next to me
B
You're out of this world, I'm out of my mind
And you've yet to run for your life
So I'll count all my ups when life hands me downs
And I'll never complain just as long as you stay next to me
A3
So you gave me your hand
And I cut you my key
I bet you've never planned
On shacking up with a fool like me for all eternity
But I'm happy always spending all of my days next to you
B
A3 (repeat)
Tag
In sickness and health, no matter my wealth
Here's a cheap ring and an old ball and chain
Happy always spending all of my days next to you
