Lyrics Arlo Guthrie

Arlo Guthrie

I Could Be Singing

I could be singing forever

I guess you could say I'm in love

The universe is getting together

You know that I can't say it enough

You and your friends have a party

Welcome your heavenly Dad

Remember the guy by the water

We seen walkin' round on the air

He went and learned for a quarter

He knew that you could see him there

You take your friends to the ocean

Walk on the sand if you can

Spiro stepped out on the door step

He spoke like he had something to say

He said, "I don't want to hear anybody"

I guess he's going to be that way

Even all the elephants hear you, Spiro

Would you believe it at last?

Nobody wants to be near you

The new world is coming that fast

They're beating on you in Chicago

They're picking you up on the coast

They're knocking you off in Ohio

They like sending you to war the most

When will you get it together

Everybody in this land

Helping out your brothers and sisters

Everyone must understand

I could be singing forever

I guess you could say I'm in love

The new world is coming together

You know that I can't say it enough

You and your friends have a party

Welcome your heavenly Dad
