Responsibility Lyrics


Poor ole surrender Mimosa
Finally burnt out by the sun
I feel pretty burnt out myself
When the long, hot summer is doneSummertime's long been my favorite
Now I can't grab it no more
Can't find no time for a fish on the line
Or that swing in the old SycamoreI'm in such a hurry now
It starts to worry me
Stop an' smell the roses?
Baby, I can't hardly seeNo, I ain't forgotten just how good it all can be
But I've got so much responsibility
Got so much responsibilityBaby, you know how I'm working
Sorry I'm busy so much
Sorry those days when the world went our way
Are so hard to return to an' to touchMaybe our future looks brighter
Maybe our ship will come in
Maybe these years an' these muletrain careers
Will be things we won't think about thenBut I'm in such a hurry now

It start to worry me
Stop an' smell the roses?
Baby I can't hardly seeNo, I ain't forgotten just how good it all can be
But I've got so much responsibility
Got so much responsibilityCompetition's heavy on a hard line wreckin' crew
The good ones never leave
An' still there's always someone new
Pressure comes down hard up on a top notch rivet team
We don't get time to pace ourselves
We don't stand around and dreamPoor ole surrender Mimosa
Finally burnt out by the heat
I feel pretty burnt out myself
When I make that ole turn down our streetSummertime's long been my favorite
Now it's ole autumn I love
Summertime fun on some beach in the sun
Is not somethin' I'm seein' much ofI'm in such a hurry now
It starts to worry me
Stop an' smell the roses?
Baby, I can't hardly seeNo, I ain't forgotten just how good it all can be
But I've got so much responsibility
Got so much responsibility
Got so much responsibility

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
