5/29/2010 alternate lyrics

Big dog got your bone
Buried underneath all he knows
Shows you nothing more
Wags his tail and hopes for a rope
In the sweet up and down

By the way who cares
You know what you've seen everyday
Nothing going on
Think of words for the road as you go
On the sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it's love keeps the world spinning round
I believe in love
Always got to believe
In the sweet up and down

Always try to fly
Always make the most of the time
My God, why did all go on the ride
Getting you behind water I can play it on
The sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it's love keep the world spinning round
I believe in love
Always got to believe
In the sweet up and down

BT

Always on my mind
What you look like with nothing on you, baby
Always on my mind
I gotta fuck, I gotta fucking get you behind
On this sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it's love keeps the world spinning round
I believe in love
Always got to believe
In the sweet up and down

I believe in love
I believe that it's love keeps the world spinning round
I believe in love
Always got to believe
In the sweet up and down
Sweet Up and Down
main lyrics
[scatting]

Big dog bites the bone
life's too short to take all this
not true, and what's more
life's too short to mind, just keep on
with the sweet up and down

Unturning her cheek
inside out, her meek little bones
dirty little girl
climbs out of the hole in her own
little sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down

[scatting]

Piggy turns to me
piggy needs to eat like us all
not far from the beast
man sits down to feast on this part
of the sweet up and down

I believe in love
and believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down
B.T.

Up and down, inside out
outside in some, you lose some you win for us all
up and down we go
bad times choke us all or twice
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but say nothing about it when you're not around
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down

I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
I believe in love
I think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down
yeah, yeah
