Try Me (The Basket Song)
Legend has it, you can put your troubles in,
To a basket you then send floating,
Down a river down the trouble goes,
They're gone now to where nobody knows,
Let your basket carry away your struggles,
Which suck the life from your spirit and your soul,
Hang on to logic & dreams baby,
Trouble can't swim upstream,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
I will rise above the crazy,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
Go ahead and Try Me, Try Me,
It whisks away with your worries 'n sins,
And all the times you didn't win,
Empty out all your heartache & pain,
All you never want to see again,
Let your basket carry away your struggles,
Which suck the life from your spirit and your soul,
Hang on to logic & dreams baby,
Trouble can't swim upstream,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
I will rise above the crazy,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
Go ahead and Try Me, Try Me,
It's all in your mind,
It's all in your mind,
Take it away it's story time,
It's all in your mind, now unwind,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
I will rise above the crazy,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
Go ahead and Try Me, Try Me,
To a basket you then send floating,
Down a river down the trouble goes,
They're gone now to where nobody knows,
Let your basket carry away your struggles,
Which suck the life from your spirit and your soul,
Hang on to logic & dreams baby,
Trouble can't swim upstream,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
I will rise above the crazy,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
Go ahead and Try Me, Try Me,
It whisks away with your worries 'n sins,
And all the times you didn't win,
Empty out all your heartache & pain,
All you never want to see again,
Let your basket carry away your struggles,
Which suck the life from your spirit and your soul,
Hang on to logic & dreams baby,
Trouble can't swim upstream,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
I will rise above the crazy,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
Go ahead and Try Me, Try Me,
It's all in your mind,
It's all in your mind,
Take it away it's story time,
It's all in your mind, now unwind,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
I will rise above the crazy,
Hand me what you got, anything you want,
Go ahead and Try Me, Try Me,
