One Big Love - Emmylou Harris

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
