Lazy River

Lyrics

Up a lazy river by the old mill run
 Lazy, lazy river in the noon day sun
 Linger awhile in the shade of the tree
 Throw away your troubles, dream a dream of me
 You know, before your sister was born
 This is what your Mama did for a living
 Music opened a whole new world to me
 No matter how bad I feel, no matter how sad or sick I am
 I just touched these keys and poof, like magic
 I always seemed to feel better
 I've always known you had talent, Bobbie
 This piano is for you, Charlie worked hard for it
 See God wouldn't have made you suffer so much
 If you weren't gonna make up for it later
 How happy you can be
 Up a lazy river with me
 Throw away your troubles, baby
 Dream a dream with me
 Up a lazy river with me
 From the halfway mark
 To be a star, a big star
 You gotta be talented obviously
 You gotta be tenacious, have charisma
 But most importantly, you've gotta have it
 A great intangible and you've got it all, Bobbie
 You're gonna be bigger than Sinatra
 I'd settle for a little Jolson Mama, Mama, Mama
 Ah ah ah, there are blue skies up above
 Forever long as we're in love
 We'll be up a lazy river
 Up a crazy lazy river
 Up a lazy river
 I ain't goin' your way
 Get out of my way
 Up a lazy river with me
