Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take it easy, take it slow
Oh
Get on with the show
Oh, that's what I know
I woke in a cold sweat last night
Seems what's been good for the music
Hasn't always been so good for the life
[Verse 2]
I've thrown my phone in a pool
In New Orleans
Found the love of my life
Again, y'all knows what I means
And I'll be back on your sofa in a puddle in a couple of weeks
[Verse 3]
I can't tell
What you're saying when you yell at the same time
You could be telling me the story of your life
Is my malfunction so surprising?
Always seem seems so stable and bright
Ain't it always the quiet types?
[Verse 4]
I've thrown my phone in a pool
In New Orleans
Found the love of my life
Again, y'all knows what I means
I'll be back on your sofa in a puddle in a couple of weeks
[Verse 5]
Well I won't
I won't
I won't
I'll won't blame New Orleans
[Verse 6]
Can't you people function for a little while?
Without me bouncing off a satellite for a night
[Verse 7]
Drink it fast or drink it slow
That's what I know
When you've gotten to the bottom of it
It's time to go
And when you've lived to be two hundred, feel free
To proffer your advice
But until that time
Here's my auto reply
[Verse 8]
I've thrown my phone in a pool
In New Orleans
Found the love of my life
Again, y'all knows what I means
And I'll be back on your sofa in a puddle in a couple of weeks
That's what I know
That's what I know
That's what I know
