Lost Blues

Don't you wanna go where things move slow?
Give me a little time to take what I know
Follow the ocean line, follow the flow
Give me a little time to take what I know

And he is calling me, but I do not answer
I am hunting for me now, oh, but I must go quietly
It's a hard way of walking, oh, and I know
It's a hard way of talking, oh, and I know

Don't let your guard down and don't live far from town
Follow the ocean line, follow the flow
Give me a little time to take what I know
Give me a little time to take what I know

"Lawdy, lawdy, I am down," said Charlie
They tried to shush me, oh, but I, I followed gleefully
In a house made for sleeping, oh, and I know
In a house made of gold, oh, and I know

I see you smile at me, smile in disbelief
If you only would trust me, we would live happily
In a house made of silver, oh, and I know
In a house made of platinum, oh, and I know

Oh, the raft at the ready, hold it fast, hold it steady
Follow the ocean line, follow the flow
Give me a little time to take what I know
Give me a little time to take what I know
