lyrics

Your gonna walk down the street again
Your gonna say bad things about me
Your gonna take your time and act real sad
Your gonna spring your trap on me
Your gonna cut me just deep enough
Act surprised to see me bleeed
Your gonna drop the raft down the side of your ship
And cheer "Hey, c'est la vie!"

Take your sweet time to set me free
Drink your sweet tea, don't worry 'bout me

I'm gonna walk the corners of my little raft
I'm gonna make her ship-shape as can be
I'm gonna carve my initials in that sweet little craft
And sail on those seven seas
I'm gonna bear down and make it
Wherever she takes me to
I'm gonna ride out those storms and take it
Into the ocean blue

Well take your sweet time, I am free
Dreaming of that island girl, don't worry bout me

I'm bound to find a home
Looking for that love of my own
There's a girl out there who knows
She don't need to worry 'bout me

I stumbled off my little ship
I found myself in a bit of a fog
I walked up that beach of golden sand
I smelled a little bit of party going on
Well, I did my best to make it
But I believe my lights went dim
That's when I heard a voice like heaven
She was struggling to reel me in

She said, "Take your sweet time, you are free,
drink up some sweet tea, don't worry 'bout me.

I'll take you back home
Where we can be alone
Make a life together,
Where we can be free.
Don't worry be free."

Robert Kerr, ASCAP
