Buckets of rain, buckets of tears, got all these buckets comin' outta my ears
I got buckets of moonbeams in my hand
You got all the love, honey baby, I can stand
[instrumental]
[instrumental]
Now I been meek and hard like an oak; you know I seen pretty people disappear
like smoke
And friends will arrive, friends will disappear
If'n you want me, well honey baby, I'll be here
Oh yeah, mmm-hmmmmm-hmmm-hmmmmm
Mmm-hmmm-hmm-mmmmm-hmm-hmmmmm
[instrumental: A G F#m Em etc.]
I like your smile and your fingertips; I like the way that you move your hips
I like that cool way you look at me
Now everything about you is bringing me misery
Oh yeah, mmm-hmmmmm-hmmm-hmmmmm
Mmm-hmmm-hmm-mmmmm-hmm-hmmmmm
[instrumental: A G F#m Em etc.]
Little red wagon, little red bike; I ain't no monkey, but I know what I like
And I like the way you love me strong and slow
Taking you with me, honey baby, when I go
Taking you with me, honey baby, when I go

[A G F#m Em D Dsus D Dsus]
Life is sad, life is a bust; all you can do is do what you must
And you do what you must do and you do it well
I'll do it for you, honey baby, can you tell
I'll do it for you, honey baby, can you tell
Mmm-hmmmmm-hmmm-hmmmmm
Mmm-hmmmmm-hmmm-hmmmmm
Mmm-hmmm-hmm-mmmmm-hmm-hmmmmm
