Brand New Bike

lyrics

Layin’ in the weeds
Starin’ at the sun
Layin’ in the weeds
Wishin’ I could have some fun
Have some fun
With someone I like
But the boy that I love
Just rode away on his new bike

He said I’ll see you Friday
He said I’ll see you then
He said I really like you
But my knees they cannot bend
They cannot bend
Oh, my knees they cannot bend
And my heart is way too small
To play a game of pretend

Sing a song of love
Sing a song of hate
Sing a song of dreams
That always have to wait
Have to wait
Oh, they always have to wait
Oh, the next time I see that man
I will not hesitate

Some flew east
And some flew west
But I’m gonna fly
To the one that I like best

Some flew north
And some flew south
The next time I see that man
I just might punch him in the mouth

Layin’ in the weeds
Starin’ at the sun
Layin’ in the weeds
Wishin’ I could have some fun
Have some fun
With someone I like
But the boy that I love
Just rode away on his new bike

Oh, the boy that I love
Just rode away on his new bike
