The Things We Do
Lyrics and Music by Woody Russell / ©℗ 2002, Woody Russell, Cats Up The Street Music, ASCAP
I’ve got an old friend
He lives on West 64th
He thinks he’s a cowboy
Sleeps with one eye open out on the porch
He says it’s heaven on earth with you living right next door
But, he doesn’t have a clue
He doesn’t know ‘bout the things that you and I do
The things we do
He doesn’t know how much I’m in love with you
And the things we do
So I gave him a call
He thought I sounded insane
And over a beer at his kitchen table
I tried my very best to explain
Just as I found the courage who should come knocking but you at the window pane
He still doesn’t have a clue
He doesn’t know ‘bout the things that you and I do
The things we do
He doesn’t know how much I’m in love with you
And the things we do
I know exactly what he sees in you
I know he’s hoping that you love him, too
I’ve just got to tell him the whole ugly truth
‘Bout those things that you and I
Those things we do
He doesn’t know how much I’m in love with you
And the things we do
