Lyrics Joanna Newsom

Joanna Newsom

The Book of Right-On

We should shine a light on

A light on

And the book of right-on is right on

It was right on

We should shine a light on

A light on

And the book of right-on is right on

It was right on

I killed my dinner with karate

Kick 'em in the face, taste the body

Shallow work is the work that I do

Do you want to sit at my table

My fighting fame is fabled

And fortune finds me fit and able

And you do say, oh

That you do pray, oh oh

And you say

That you're okay

And do you want to run with my pack

And do you want to ride on my back

Pray that what you lack does not distract

And even when you ruin through my mind

Something else is in front, you're behind

And I don't have to remind you

To stick with your kind

And you do say, oh oh

That you do pray, oh oh

And you say

That you're okay

And even when you touch my face

You know your place

And even when you touch my face

You know your place

And we should shine a light on

A light on

And the book of right-on is right on

It was right on

And we should shine a light on

A light on

And the book of right-on is right on

It was right on
