Rollin In The Grass
I wrote these fun lyrics to Scufflin by Charlie Musselwhite back in 2008.
Take a deep breath of life
Like a full grown kid
Honey, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
Ahhh, I knew a chap
That never grew up
Baby, Rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
The rhythm is good
Yea, the rhythm is right
We’ll be rollin in the grass
Till the early morning light.
We been soakin up the sun
Baby all day long
We’ll be soakin up the wine
Till the morning comes
Well… the music is jammin
Man, all over town
And, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
I don’t dream about tomorrow
Don’t think about today
I’m jamming to the music
That’s jus how I pray
We’ll be movin, we’ll be grooving
We’ll be ridin on the waves
If the good lord is willing
Darlin we’ll be saved
We’ll be rollin, we’ll be strollin
We’ll be slammin, we’ll be jammin
We’ll be smoking, we’ll be token
We’ll be livin life right
We’ll be huggin, we’ll be kissin
We’ll be cookin in the kitchen
Baby, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
Me and my baby, we’re paintin the town
And rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down.
Well the summer could be sizzlin
The rain it could be drizzling
The traffic could be goin
And our blood it could be flowin
Me and my baby we’re a shakin the crowd
And rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
My shoes are on the porch
With the grass between my toes
Aw, your lips are sweet as honey
And you’re smellin like a rose
Yea we’re livin life good
And we’re livin life right
Baby, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
We’ll be jumpin, we’ll be bumpin
We’ll be movin, we’ll be groovin
We’ll be singin, we’ll swingin
We’ll be doin what we’re doin
Me and my baby gonna do the run around
And rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down.
Well I knew a chap
That never grew up
He was runnin all around
Like a frisky little pup
He was dancing all around
Till the early mornin light
Cause the music is good
and the music is right
If you wanna have some fun
you better hit the ground
Cause rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
I said, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down.
Baby, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
Yea, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
Ohh, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
Gonna party all night
Like a crazy old clown
Baby, rollin in the grass
Don’t bring me down
