Nothing But A Breeze Lyrics - Defying Gravity - Jesse Winchester

Life is much too short for some folks 

For other folks it just drags on 

Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey 

Others figure tea is too strong 

I'm the type of guy who likes it right down the middle 

I don't like all this bouncing back and forth 

Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie 

And my head in the cool blue North 

And there we'll do just as we please 

It ain't nothing but a breeze

In a small suburban garden 

Not a single neighbor knows our name 

I know the woman wishes we would move somewhere 

Where the houses aren't all the same 

Jesse, I wish you would take me 

Where the grass is greener 

I really couldn't say where it may be 

Somewhere up on a mountain top 

Or down by the deep blue sea 

And there we'll do just as we please 

It ain't nothing but a breeze 

One day I'll be old gray grandpa 

All the pretty girls will call me "sir," 

Now, where they're asking me how things are 

Soon they'll ask me how things were 

Well, I don't mind being an old gray grandpa 

If you'll be my gray grandma 

But I suggest we go have our milk and cookies 

In the shade of the old paw-paw 

And there we'll do just as we please 

It ain't nothing but a breeze
