G. Love & Special Sauce - Soft and SweetLyrics

Chilling out on a ridge, by the sea, in a ranchido Cool breeze through the trees sings a song so sweet For my baby and my boo boo Asleep they lay So I picked up my guitar and then I start to play The music was pulsing blood up to my eyes I surmised the horizon, sun rising, surprising the hell out Of the clouds Like they were kissed for the first time. The sun was steady rising and I'm sitting in the sunshine I hear my baby crying and he's just waking up So I walk through the screen door and I go pick him up Rocka, rocka, rocka, rocka, rocka, rocka back and forth Baby quit crying then I'll go and play some more [Chorus: ] Soft and sweet melodies while your momma's sleeping Let her sleep in late this morning Let her sleep 'til the sun is burning down Burning down down down Baby baby hold my fingers with your little tiny hands While we lounge in a hammock checking out all the land I smell the sweet scents of papaya and lime I smell the ocean breezes, the salt And my mind is captivated by your big brown eyes Which remind me of mine Now I know we're two of a kind Rocka, rocka, rocka, rocka, rocka, rocka back and forth Baby quit crying then I'll go and play some more [Chorus: ] The day is getting brighter and the wind is breezing down The whole tree is shaking, fallen fruit is on the ground I smile when I'm thinking about the love I've found Momma's still sleeping so we play these mellow sounds [Chorus: ] Burning down, burning down, burning down
