Everybody's Looking For The Same Thing Lyrics - Roadside Attractions - Marcia Ball

Well, look at that dog digging in the yard 

What you think he's after now 

His head is sagging and his tail is dragging 

He's one discontented hound 

Now he's staring out the fence and it doesn't make sense 

What could he be thinking of 

He's like a young girl waiting for the phone to ring 

And that's love 

Well, people when you talk about happiness 

It's a matter of degrees 

I've got it better than the other guy 

You've got it better than me 

It's a house with heat, some food to eat 

And a roof up above 

But there's still something missing 

It's that hugging and kissing 

Everybody's looking for the same thing, sis 

And that's love, that's love 

You can't get it in the lost and found 

It's not hidden in the closet or buried in the ground 

It'll make you sing "I've got the world on a string" 

That's why everybody's looking for the same old thing

Rooster's out looking for a hen 

Everybody's wishing on a shooting star 

Me and the marines just want a few good men 

But it's a well known fact that it leads the pack 

When push comes to shove 

And it may sound funny but I don't mean money 

It makes the dark clouds lift and the days all sunny 

Everybody's looking for the same thing, honey 

And that's love, that's love, that's love
