Chasing The Real Things

Between clothing, unclothing

Wedding rings and bass strings

Dreaming and steaming and

Coffee and cigarets

Between Green cards and Master Cards

Dubious cards, playing cards

Cleaning and reading and

Riding my jalopy

Between hiding and fighting

Biding, take a siding

Feeding and speeding and

All those memories

Between locking, unlocking

Bottoms up and shocking

Yearnin' and learnin' and turnin'

"I am chasing the real things

Chasing the real things in life

I am chasing the real things

Chasing the real things in life"

Between recipes and Bunny Beas

Knifes and forks and funny dorks

Lighting up candles and

Drinking some more wine

Between blueberry pancakes

Ben & Jerry´s and red stakes

Sunshine and moonshine

Some other friends of mine

Between high fives and low fives

Laughs and jokes and deep sighs

Working and jerking and

In my own silhouette

Between axin' and relaxing

Emmylou and Michael Jackson

milk shakes and corn flakes and

Snowflakes

"I am chasing the real things
