Ricky Nelson Mr. Dolphin
I just talked to a dolphin the other day about things And he said hey boy, what's your hurry He said if I was you, I'd rather be me I guess that's the way it's supposed to be So don't you worry, no, try to love one an' other
I said take a look around town Look what ya got to pick from You got a whole lot of people Just tryin' to get somethin' from someone, yeah
But then he said you can't start thinkin' like that Because you know it's not where it's at You gotta open up your mind Leave the other world behind
I said it's easier said than done He said no, no, all you gotta do is love one an' other Take your time, try to rhyme Shake the hand of your brother, yeah And just love one an' other
I said thank you Mr. Dolphin You're my friend now Mr. Dolphin Once again now Mr. Dolphin I said thank you, thank you Mr. Dolphin, yeah
I said take a look around town Look what ya got to pick from You got a whole lot of people Just tryin' to get somethin' from someone, yeah
