That's Alright

You say you want to change

But you don't want to change

You say that it was living in the city

made you do those stupid ass things

Now the country air is clean

And the living is right

Anytime you want to leave

Momma that's alright

To see New England in the Fall

We took the Holland Tunnel

Intent to make the journey to the centre

of the heart of what's the matter with you

To take the waters on the mountain

We didn't budget for the downturn

And now the well is running dry

Momma that's alright

Loving you is hard enough

Leaving just more of the same

Anytime I get me far enough

Your gravity kicks in again

I'm just your lonely satellite

Hey Momma that's alright

So Now you say you want to live

Out on Martha's Vineyard

You say we'll get a little plot of land and

Build our own damn French farmhouse

There's no depression in France

They're too busy with the romance

And it's a starry starry night

If Momma that's alright

Loving you is hard enough

Leaving just more of the same

Anytime I get me far enough

I come tumbling down again

I'm just your lonely satellite

Hey Momma that's alright

To see New England in the Fall

And watch the colours turn to gold

And then to put the cause of the condition

In the rear view and then to let it go

Rented Bonneville sedan

Road map in my hand

No resolution in sight

Momma that's alright

Loving you is hard enough

Leaving just more of the same

Anytime I get me far enough

I come tumbling down again

I'm just your lonely satellite

Momma that's alright
