  • River's strong you can't
    Swim inside it we could
    String some lights up the, hill beside it
    Tonight the moon's so bright you could
    You could drive with your headlights out

    'Cause a little bit of summer's what the whole year's all about

    You look fine, fine, fine
    Put your feet up next to mine
    We can watch that water line get higher and higher
    Say, say, say
    Ain't it been some kind of day
    You and me been catching on like a wildfire

    Don't get up just to, get another you can
    drink from mine, we can't, leave each other
    We can dance with the dead
    You can rest your head
    On my shoulder if you want to get older with me

    'Cause a little bit of summer makes a lot of history

    You look fine, fine, fine
    Put your feet up next to mine
    We can watch that water line get higher and higher
    Say, say, say
    Ain't it been some kind of day
    You and me been catching on like a wildfire

    I got a rock from the river in my medicine bag
    Magpie feather in his medicine bag

    Say, say, say
    Ain't it been some kind of day
    You and me been catchin' on like a wildfire Writer/s: John Clayton Mayer

  • Bobbylupo from ChicagoThank God that this isn't the song about the horse getting lose and freezing to death in a winter storm. Whatever twisted f--k wrote that song ought to be euthanized. One clap for Mayer on one. Clap.
