500 Up Lyrics

Sloan 500 Up

She comes running
Down like water
To splash around
With the ones that taught her
She's just like
That farmer's daughter
Everybody laughs at the joke
And we are laughing
She don't know what it means
She just knows
That it's not what it seems
Everybody knows
That's she's goin' nowhere
Everybody always tells her
How much they care
When all they really care about
Is growing their hair
And getting it cut
And we are laughing
She don't know what it means
She just knows
That it's not what it seems
She's runnin' down much faster
Home base is around the corner
All she can hear is laughter
And that's all that's in store for her
Sliding downwards
You're the batter
That what they say
500 up on the ladder
She comes running
Down like water
She comes running down
Everybody knows
That she's goin' nowhere
Everybody always tells her
How much they care
When all they really care about
Is cutting their hair
And letting it grow
And we are laughing
She don't know what it means
She just knows
That it's not what it seems
She's runnin' down much faster
Home base is around the corner
All she can hear is laughter
And that's all that's in store for her
