I try to listen
Oh to the little if there’s a heat inside
But it’s hard to trust it
When everyone out here is so uptight
I can’t admit it
But what I want is what I want
And that is what I’ve always tried to hide
‘Cause that’s how we live life too (no, no)
Well let me pose this question
Could it be I’m the only one?
It can’t be I’m the only one
Doesn’t everyone think they’re the only one?
Say it ain’t so
Say it ain’t so
Say it ain’t so
Now say it ain’t so
Go on, sing that back, sing that back to me, sing it
So, now say it ain’t so
Just hold on to that, you remember it
And we’ll ask you to sing that later
Damn
It’s quiet around here without a kick drum
Set that control
Or play the guitar
Pretty please
And if I’m honest with her
I guess I have to tell
That there’s no promise I haven’t kept to myself
But I’m not finished here
No matter what you said
‘Cause I stay hungry
And those other cats are too well fed
I say so, now say it ain’t so
Say it ain’t so, now say it ain’t so
It means I feel a little something
And now everybody does
Says a lot of people walk in when
Well just my buddy does
I say it ain’t so
Ah shh
You see how these guys are?
They gonna play games with you
Let me tell you something
I know these guys
They’re close personal friends of min
You gotta watch out for them
They’re tricky, they’re tricky, they’re tricky
Well now I’ll tell you why
I wanna tell you why
I wanna tell you how I feel
Yeah, I wanna tell you how I feel
You see
I, I feel so free
I feel so free
I feel so free right now
I, I feel so free
I feel so free
I feel so
Free, malarkey, you know what I’m talking about
I remember when they told me
So that’s the way things go
I looked straight in the eye and said
Baby, it ain’t so
It ain’t so
It ain’t so
The trouble when I was older
They’d think that I wouldn’t know
But I’m old enough to look over my shoulder
And still say it ain’t so
It ain’t so
It ain’t so
Now say it ain’t so
Now say it ain’t so
(Don’t tell me how to love)
Say it ain’t so
Now say it ain’t so
(Don’t tell me how to love)
I
I feel so free
I feel so free
I feel so free right now
I feel like it’s just like a
Shower of Grammys in here
So I’m trippin on them
And I’m splashing in puddles of Grammys
Oh
But I don’t mind, I can take it
Let ’em rain, I said, let ’em rain
Or do you want it crispy in this moment?
And if Henders is gonna get the Swedish Grammy
Swimming?
Nah, forget I said that
We’re just gonna take you home
You can watch the Bills
And I feel so free
I feel so free
(When I’m real) I feel so free (when I’m real)
High (when I’m real)
High (when I’m real, I feel so free)
High (when I’m real) I feel so free
High
I remember when they told me
So that’s the way things go
I looked straight in the eye and said
Said baby, it ain’t so
The trouble when I was older
They’d think that I wouldn’t know
You know what?
I was old enough to look over my shoulder
I’m old enough to look over my shoulder
I’m old enough to look over my shoulder
Still, say it ain’t so
It ain’t so
It ain’t so
Now say it ain’t so
Now say it ain’t so
(Don’t tell me how to love)
Say it ain’t so
Now say it ain’t so
(Don’t tell me how to love)
See, I
I feel so free, right now, yeah
I feel so free, right now
I feel so free, right now, yeah
I feel so free, right now
