Meet Me Where I'm At
Standin’ on the corner of Frenchman Dutchman double dutchin’ on the concrete The smack of his bubblegum poppin’ The soft pillowy landin’ of his boat-sized feet Tied pulled loose, shakin’ his caboose Suit pants rolled up to his thighs Usually, I’d pass on through But somethin’ made me wanna ask why And he said Ain’t got a care in the world Don’t gotta change nothin’ Ain’t got a care in the world Just gotta say something’ Be childlike and free, be kind and just be Won’t you meet me where I’m at? Conductor of the train click-clackin’ it’s heels As it skips through town He’s a runaway smokestack, billowin’ wisecracks Engine runnin’ down into the ground He was punchin’ the ticket of a witty little misfit Pigtailed girl about three He was a man on a mission, barely even listenin’ But her voice hung in the air, a honeyed apostrophe And she said Letras de canciones Ain’t got a care in the world Don’t gotta change nothin’ Ain’t got a care in the world Just gotta say something’ Be childlike and free, be kind and just be Won’t you meet me where I’m at? Don’t matter where the message comes from Whether they’re wise and wrickled or naïve and young All that matters is we’re receptive to the lesson That life will keep us guessin’ Learn from our failures and our successes And live like you Ain’t got a care in the world Don’t gotta change nothin’ Ain’t got a care in the world Just gotta say something’ Be childlike and free, be kind and just be Ain’t got a care in the world Don’t gotta change nothin’ Ain’t got a care in the world Just gotta say something’ Be childlike and free, be kind and just be Won’t you meet me where I’m at?
