--Now that I'm on my own--

Come with me and you'll find
a little story about our family
Sit up tight and listen
to the words I'm speaking clearly

You see my sister's in the shower,
she's taking half an hour
And she's making us late for school
Music so loud and I can't figure it out
What's a little boy to do?
Fights with the cereal the shreddies and
the cheerios and eating some of her food
Waiting my turn to talk on the telephone,
Patience I had to use

But I wouldn't trade
those days for anything
You could give me the world
But I would say no
It's funny how those
Simple things seem ridiculous
Now, Oh now
Now that I'm on my own

You see Miller Lake it always great
And we're swimming in the pool
Those wagon rides with you by my side
And acting like a fool
Baking cookies and reading stories
And sleeping at hotels
Eating out at restaurants
Staying up too late tell

You see it's been too long
Since we talked on the phone
Haven't seen each other for while
Yeah were working different hours
But it really shouldn't matter
Cuz I need to your smiles
Let's make some time for
bbq a beer a two
A coffee or a tea
These are the simple things I love to do with both of you
They matter the most to me

Just lovin those time together
Hanging out no matter what the weather
(scatting throughout)
Oh you mean the world to me
(harmonics on the 5th fret)
