Waterfall

Dwight Yoakam · 3 Pears [2012]

If I had a waterfall

We wouldn't wonder, not at all

How much fun each day was gonna be



If I had a mountain top

I know we would never stop

Climbing way high up to look and see



If I had a jellyfish

I betcha we would never miss

A single peanut butter kiss or squeeze



If I had a waterfall

It might not make no sense at all

But that won't matter much to you and me



Babies get born

Even in a war

I guess just to show us

What livin's for

My heart still

Believes that love

For what we need

Can be enough

If we'll just stop

Keepin' score



If I had a big giraffe

That tried to dance and made us laugh

Every smile and giggle would be free



If I had a big moonlight

We'd turn it back on every night

Just so the dark could try and get some sleep



If I had a rocket ship

We'd go places really quick

Then have the time to stop and get ice cream



If I had a big giraffe

He'd have to take a real long bath

And that's why waterfalls are really neat



Babies get born

Even in a war

I guess just to show us

What livin's for

My heart still

Believes that love

For what we need

Can be enough

If we'll just stop

Keepin' score



If I had an everything

We could stand out in the rain

And only feel the drops we wanted to



If I had a wonderful

We could play out in the snow

And never have to wear our socks and shoes



If I had a pot of luck

I wouldn't have to spend a buck

And get all the stuff we needed for a sneeze



If I had an everything

We wouldn't get wet in the rain

And ridin' waterfalls would be a breeze



If I had a big giraffe

He'd have to take a real long bath

And that's why waterfalls are really neat
