Lyrics

[Verse 1] My uncle, the barefooter Used to start up on the dock Running with the handle As the boat was driving off And it would drag him underwater Until he made it to his feet How could something so impossible Be made to look so easy? Down by Lower Monumental Mountain runoff in the spring I tried my best impression And felt it drag me underneath And when he moved to Carolina One September afternoon He left his Nautique like the rover On the surface of the moon [Chorus] Well, I don't think that it's too much to ask That we all give a little and we all get a little back But I'd like a word with the man who sold me this that I Bought in for a future with declining buyer confidence Don't let me down easy, just let me down [Verse 2] Well, if growing up is learning Things are not the way you wish Tiger hanging by his seatbelt Wrong side up down in the ditch I'll disappoint the disappointment Fail to fail, defeat defeat Yeah, believe in the believing The kind of hero that I need [Chorus] Well, I don't think that it's too much to ask That we all give a little and we all get a little back But I'd like a word with the man who sold me this That I bought in for a future with declining buyer confidence I don't think that it's too much to ask That it all gets a little better with the days that pass And I'd like a word with the man who sold me this That I bought in for a future with declining buyer confidence Don't let me down easy, just let me down Don't let me down easy, just let me down Don't let me down easy, just let me down Don't let me down easy, just let me down
