This Side Up
She said, "I'm heading for the coast," I said, "I don't know where that is"
She said, "I'm going on nothing in all the in between
I'll let the chorus carry the tune, while I wait for a louder voice
'Cause lately mine's been weighing on me
"So carry me This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna go somewhere with you
This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna make it out alive"
"Well Momma said, 'don't you spend your money on the blues
And take all the things that you've been given and put on your working shoes'
I said the Mississippi sun's not a-coming out for me
And the house has been cold for four months now, and I don't know what to do
"When a cab driver said that he's heading upstream I said
'That's where I wanna go'
They say that sunshine's no longer the same
I'm trying to find me some comfort but I'm searching in vein
"So carry me This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna go somewhere with you
This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna make it out alive"
So carry me This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna go somewhere with you
This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna make it out alive
She said, "I'm going on nothing in all the in between
I'll let the chorus carry the tune, while I wait for a louder voice
'Cause lately mine's been weighing on me
"So carry me This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna go somewhere with you
This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna make it out alive"
"Well Momma said, 'don't you spend your money on the blues
And take all the things that you've been given and put on your working shoes'
I said the Mississippi sun's not a-coming out for me
And the house has been cold for four months now, and I don't know what to do
"When a cab driver said that he's heading upstream I said
'That's where I wanna go'
They say that sunshine's no longer the same
I'm trying to find me some comfort but I'm searching in vein
"So carry me This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna go somewhere with you
This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna make it out alive"
So carry me This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna go somewhere with you
This Side Up, carry me This Side Up
'Cause I just wanna go somewhere
And I just wanna make it out alive
