[Verse 1]
Don’t even go too fast, mama
I’m steady on a rock tripping
I’ll tell you that I’m not slipping
But tell me not a thing ripping
Let’s say that there will be lipping
I’m standing on top blinking
I’d tell you that I don’t know
But you’re favored now by fifty
And I’m right at home

[Chorus]
And damn, if I’m not climbing up a tree right now
And everything is peaceful love
And right in me
And I know that we may go and change someday
I couldn’t rightly say
That’s for parting days

[Verse 2]
What I went and thought about
All in one day
Is simply in-divisible?
As we go our separate ways
Have you already spoken?
Did I hear you say?
Did I already hear you say?
When you’re gone
That’s a long, old weight of mine

[Chorus]
And damn, if I’m not climbing up a tree right now
And every little thing is love
And right with me
And how am I to know that someday you might change the road?
I caught an offering
That’s a burning ring

[Bridge]
Is it just coming or going?
Or will it hang around?
For a long, long time
Well, I’ve had too much
And not nearly enough
‘Cause I’m afraid with that love
And then they make me this way
I, I’ll just go ahead away!
On the loose
The opposite of fools!
I will run the table all through
‘Cause I still don’t know the truth

[Chorus]
But damn, if I’m not climbing up a tree right now
And everything is peaceful love
And right in me
And I know that someday you may change someway
I couldn’t rightly say
That’s for parting ways
