Put Your Records On

Three little birds sat by my window

And they told me I don't need to worry

Summer came like cinnamon, so sweet

Little girls, double-dutch on the concrete

Maybe sometimes we got it wrong, but it's alright

The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same

So don't you hesitate

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song

Just go ahead, let your hair down

Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams

Just go ahead, let your hair down

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely

Sipping tea in a bar by the roadside

Don't you let those other boys fool you

Gotta love that Afro hairdo

Maybe sometimes we feel-a, feel afraid, but it's alright

The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change

Don't you think it's strange

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song

Just go ahead, let your hair down

Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams

Go on ahead, let your hair down

You're gonna find yourself somewhere

Just more than I could take, pity for pity's sake

Some nights kept me awake

I thought that I was stronger

When are you gonna realize that you don't even have to try any longer?

Do what you wanna

And girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song

Go ahead, an' let your hair down

Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams

Just go ahead, let your hair down

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow
