lyrics

Well I heard a little story 'bout the mountains
I heard a little story 'bout the sea
I went to ask my mother if a word of it was true
And this is what she said to me


She said darlin' don't you worry 'bout nothin'
There so much in the world for you to see
There's time to see it all if you don't mess around
Don't you mess around, you listenin' to me
Don't you mess around, you listenin' to me

It was may when I saw him for the first time
Everything I love about the spring
And when I heard him sing those precious melodies
My heart decided that it wasn't up to me

I said honey I don't want your greenback dollar
Honey I don't want your watch and chain
All I want it time
No need to say that you'll be mine

And he said darlin' don't you worry 'bout nothin'
There's so much in the world we need to see
There's time to see it all if you wanna mess around
Wanna mess around, mess around with me
Wanna mess around, mess around with me

Didn't take long 'till I realized I had found him
Everything I wanted in my dreams
He took my hand, he took my heart
He took me from the very start
And this is what it sounded like to me

(Repeat last stanza)
