Joking lyrics
Song information
Artist: Indigo Girls Album: Rites Of Passage
Lyrics
Words and music: amy ray
You said the world was magic I was wide-eyed and laughing We were dancing up to the bright side Forget about your ego forget about your pride And we will never have to compromise
And you were only joking You were only joking brother
We talked about mothers kissing the wounds of our fathers I could have been your sister I would have been your brother You kissed me like a soldier heading for a war I'm a dying man but I don't know what for
But you were only joking You were only joking brother You were only joking You were only joking brother
Gravel and glass on the bottom of my feet I bruised my heels on the swollen street We were girls in bars, boys on the town Bumping like a pinball off a careless crowd You said good friends are hard to come by I laughed and bought you a beer it's too corny to cry Well sentiments given, sentiments lost You shook it off with a smirk and a toss
You were only joking You were only joking brother
Amy: You were only joking You were only joking brother You kissed me like a soldier heading for a war I'm a dying man but I don't know what for Emily: Gravel and glass on the bottom of my feet I bruised my heels on the swolen street Joking You were only joking brother
And you were only, you were only, you were only joking Brother
1 - 2 - 3 - 4
Sha na Sha na Sha na Sha na Sha na (wide-eyed and laughing) Sha na ( dancing up to the bright side) Sha na ( wide-eyed and laughing) Sha na ( dancing up to the bright side)
