Album: Rooster Rag (2012)

One Breath At A Time

Yesterday's done gone away
I never knew that girl to stay
Tomorrow's boy never does show
He's only rumor now don't you know

I don't keep no cares about that
I don't have to be aware about that
Don't even give a little thought about that
'Cause my baby girl says it ain't about that

She's got a smile, ain't no teasing
Time in this world is spent on pleasing me

My baby loves me
One breath at a time
Ain't no rhyme ain't no reason
Ain't no style ain't no season
My baby loves me
One breath at a time

All my friends say to me
They want to see some guarantee
Nobody wants to wait and see
Nobody's diggin' on a mystery

I don't keep no cares about that
I don't have to be aware about that
Don't even give a little thought about that
'Cause my baby girl says it ain't about that

She's got a way to keep me swinging
Time in this world is spent on pleasing me

My baby loves me
One breath at a time
Ain't no rhyme ain't no reason
Ain't no style ain't no season
My baby loves me
One breath at a time

I'm less of a stallion more like a mule
Tired of carrying round all of these rules
More of a monk than a libertine
A bad American but I'm never mean

I don't keep no cares about that
I don't have to be aware about that
Don't even give a little thought about that
'Cause my baby girl says it ain't about that

She's got a love that's all old school
She's got a love with no time for a fool

My baby loves me
One breath at a time
Ain't no rhyme ain't no reason
Ain't no style ain't no season
My baby loves me
One breath at a time
