Patty Griffin
One Big Love
Let's take a ride to the seaside
We can go out swimming in the high tide
Just wear your shorts and your long hair
Don't forget the lawn chair

Everybody's gone to the movies
Everybody's gone and it’s groovy
They went to the one about the big war
I didn't, I'd seen it before

I guess I'm taking my chances
Giving up the ring, throwing in the gloves
I guess I'm taking my chances
Trading in my things, for a couple wings, on a little white dove
And one big love, one big love

Everybody do like a monkey
If you want to go on and be funky
No need to talk like a hero
Talk a walk and count down to zero

No sense defending your honour
Just go on and kiss him if you want to
Everything before is gone
Or is going somewhere
I guess I'm taking my chances
Giving up the ring, throwing in the gloves
I guess I'm taking my chances
Trading in my things, for a couple wings, on a little white dove
And one big love, one big love

I don't know where we are and I don't care
And now we're out of gas and riding on air
And one big love, one big love

Everybody run till you're flying
Touch a star without even trying
Everybody's swinging from the big star
Everybody's riding in the cool car

Let's take a ride to the seaside
We can go out swimming in the high tide
Everybody do like a monkey
Everybody go on and be funky
Everybody go on and be funky
Let's take a ride to the seaside

Let's take a ride to the seaside
Let's take a ride to the seaside
Let's take a ride to the seaside
