The Riches

I love standing by the water
and just knowing what it's for
It's alright to swim and sip it
let me have a little more
Like my woman, like my shower
get them hot until their steaming
Love to find a little spot
nice and shady that's for dreamin' of the riches

Oh, tell me where are you hidden?
Cause ready or not man, I'm coming in
Into the life
Into the life
Into the life of riches!

Stretching out in the sun
like a cat in the window
Hillside changing colors
as I'm watching shadows throw
I'm laughing that is rich
it puts my stomach in the stiches
Early bird from a perch
looking down can see all the world's riches

Oh, tell me where are you hidden?
Cause ready or not man, I'm coming in
Into the life
Into the life
Into the life of riches!

Never lookin' over my shoulder again
I wanna buy my time and finally own my fate
If you tell me no, then I really must insist
And when the hunt is over, kiss me on my lips

Kisses!

So let's talk about our plan
you can count it's gonna work
Carry on, feel immortal
at the risk of gettin' hurt
I'm praying that it rains
so some day we'll be sowin'
Living through a little pain
no complainin' as we're training for the riches

Oh, tell me where are you hidden?
Oh, all of a sudden
There you are

I'm happy that the sky is blue
and that the earth is green
And that there's lots of fresh clean air
sandwiched in between
I love watching as the snow
makes brushes out of trees
And swinging from the tops
of all my guarantees

I'm happy that the sky is blue
and that the earth is green
And that there's lots of fresh clean air
sandwiched in between
I love watching as the snow
makes brushes out of trees
And swinging from the tops
of all my guarantees
