The Natural Thing To Do

(álbum: Continental American - 1974)

I've been collecting lots of odds and ends
Have been reflecting how all my friendships
Are becoming hardships
Oh no, it's not I want to leave you babe
But we are hanging on like we might be saved
It might seem like running away
From your point of view
But to me it's the natural thing to do

I've walked a lot of roads with a lot of bends
And if I find my way to my happy ending
My roads will need mending
No, I don't know if I will ever find
As good as what I'm going to leave behind
Seems I'm always leaving what's safe
For something what's new
But to me that's the natural thing to do

I've been uptown, I've been down
It's all the same to me
Goodbye old girl you can take my flat
Don't know where I'm going be

Way out West where there's beer and bed
And a pat on your behind
Where lives are made by hand
And your smile means more than you're mine

But keep the records all my songs are free
I sang of lots of places that I've never seen
And people that I've never been
I'm going to start my life again from one
Undue the damage that I've done

I've been uptown, I've been downtown
It's all the same to me
Bye old girl take my flat
Don't know where I'm going be

But keep all the records
'Cause all my songs are free
I sang of lots of places that I've never seen
And people that I've never been
I'm going to start my life again from one
Undue a little damage that I've done

It will be the hardest thing
I've ever been through
Making it seem the natural thing
Like the natural thing to do
Like the natural thing to do
