Verse
When I Straighten Out My Eyes I See A Pair Of Branches,
Just-A-Swingin, I’m In Between 'Em.
I Got The Feeling That Something Might Be Wrong.
I Wash Off My Face, And I Find That There's A Cigarette Still Burning.
Behind My Ear From I Stashed It Right Before I Dipped Out.
Right Before She Said, She Said That She Wants To, Said That She Needs To, Said That She Has To.
Well, She’s Forgotten. She’s Forgotten About It By Now.
Just Like Surely She Has Forgotten About Me By Now.
Chorus
Baby, Baby, It’s Alright.
It’s Simple, But It’s True; It’s Alright.
Baby, Baby, It’s Alright.
It’s Forever Gonna Be True; It’s Alright.
Verse 2
Well, I Checked The Cosmic Forecast, And My Future Was Looking Bright,
So, I Got To Walking. That’s When I Saw It.
This Gal Was Selling Six Types Of Stone Fruit,
And Somehow They Was All Growing On One Tree.
Oh My. So, I Said, "Hey There Lady, I’ll Take A Couple Peaches,
And Some Cherries. They Look Mighty Tasty.
Say Where The Hell Did You Get That Tree?"
Some Guy Said That He Grew It, Said That Grafted, Said That He Loved It,
But Then He Sold It. That Old Hill-Billy Sold It To Me, For Five Magic Beans!
Chorus
Baby, Baby, It’s Alright.
It’s Simple, But It’s True; It’s Alright.
Baby, Baby, It’s Alright.
It’s Forever Gonna Be True; It’s Alright.
Verse 3
After Swinging At The Park And Listening In To Several Overly Public,
Conversations, I Went Skating,
Over To The Parking Lot Where I Pulled Out That,
Last-A-Half-A-Cigarette.
As I Opened Up The Matchbook I Formed A Little Grin,
'Cause I Found Her Number.
She Put It In My Pocket As I Bummed This Smoke Late Last Night.
Right Before She Said, She Said That She Wants To, Said That She Needs To, Said That She Has To.
She Must Have Figured, She Must Have Figured Out That I Am Dumb,
Especially When I’m Faded! Yup!
Chorus
Baby, Baby, It’s Alright.
It’s Simple, But It’s True; It’s Alright.
Baby, Baby, It’s Alright.
It’s Forever Gonna Be True; It’s Alright.
