500 Up lyrics

She comes running down like water
To splash around with the ones that taught her
She`s just like that farmer`s daughter
Everybody laughs at the joke

And we`re laughing
She don`t know what it means
She just knows that it`s not what it seems

Everybody knows that she`s going nowhere
Everybody always tells her how much they care
But all they really care about is growin` their hair
And gettin` it cut

And we`re laughing
She don`t know what it means
She just knows that it`s not what it seems

She`s running down much faster
Home base is around the corner
All she can hear is laughter
And that`s all that`s in store for her

Sliding downwards, you`re the batter
That`s what they say, 500 up on the ladder

She comes running down like water
She comes running down

Everybody knows that she`s going nowhere
Everybody always tells her how much they care
But all they really care about is cuttin` their hair
And lettin` it grow

And we`re laughing
She don`t know what it means
She just knows that it`s not what it seems

She`s running down much faster
Home base is around the corner
All she can hear is laughter
And that`s all that`s in store for her
