Our Swingin' Pad

(album: Having A Party With Jonathan Richman - 1991)

I need friends to come over to our swinging pad

I need friends to come over to our swinging pad
We made it great inside so they'd feel glad
Walking all around, sleeping on the ground
I need friends to come over to our swinging pad

We're gonna rock, rock, just a little
Gonna roll, roll, just a little
Gonna rock and roll
At our swinging pad

On a cloudy day, you can come over
That's okay at our swinging pad
Talking kinda rough, ha, jokes and stuff
I need friends to come over to our swinging pad

We're gonna rock, rock, just a little
Gonna roll, roll, just a little
Gonna rock and roll
At our swinging pad

We gotta sofa designed by big daddy Roth
(Our swingin pad, our swingin pad)
We got curtains made out of weird old cloth
You can come over
We gotta trampoline that you might like
(Our swingin pad, our swingin pad)
You can ride your horse or ride your bike

Oh, I see the trees, but that's not enough
I smell the wintertime but I'm cold inside
I want them at our door, sleeping on the floor
I need friends to come over to our swinging pad

We're gonna rock, rock, just a little
Gonna roll, roll, just a little
Gonna rock and roll
At our swinging pad
We're gonna rock, rock, just a little
Gonna roll, roll, just a little
Gonna rock and roll
At our... guitar

I wait for the phone to ring
I watch the neighbors lights from our swinging pad
And when the lights go down I get sort of sad
'Cause I need friends to come over to our swinging pad

We're gonna rock, rock, just a little
Gonna roll, roll, just a little
Gonna rock and roll
At our swinging pad
We're gonna rock, rock, just a little
Gonna roll, roll, just a little
Gonna rock and roll
At our swinging pad
