Taking it light
is the only way to go.
Taking it easy
is better than some of the things I’ve known.
I tried living the hard times
underneath the wicked moonshine.
For a while I was so blind,
but now I’m beginning to see the light.
There’s nothin’ like lovin’ to bring back the love
and love is all there is to love about life.
Enjoying yourself
is the only way to know
just what you been missing
when you be down that dark and lonely road.
You can try busting your demons,
but you’ll only get them screaming.
You’re better off dreaming —
a lover tangled up in delight.
Freedom — that’s when somebody holds you.
Freedom — that’s when somebody knows you to.
You can get lost in the hustle
and all it costs to bustle
but I suggest you find your sugar shuffle
and shuffle off into the night.
