"Trippin On You" lyrics

John Butler Lyrics

"Trippin On You"

When I was just a boy, my Papa said to me:
"Son, if you want the best, well, the best don't come for free
And if you find the One—the one to make your Queen—
You better be ready, be ready, yeah, to be a King

No crown upon your head can make you into a man
You've got to do your very best, every day, best you can
This my advice to you—sometimes the truth, it hurts—
Everything worth keeping, yeah, takes a lot of work and"

I've been trippin' on you, girl, yes I have
You've been trippin' on me—we gonna work it on out
I've been trippin' on you, girl, yes I have
You've been trippin' on me—we gonna work it on out

And like you always say, our love is like the tide—
Sometimes it's in and full, sometimes it is out and dry
But we keep the faith, it will come in again
Then it goes back out, 'cause that's the way it's always been

Every bed of roses, yeah, has its thorns
Ain't no use in going, throwing sticks and stones
Tell me girl, what the hell we're fighting about?
Gonna put on our boots and work it on out—
On out, on out, we gonna work it on out

I've been trippin' on you, girl, yes I have
You've been trippin' on me—we gonna work it on out
I've been trippin' on you, girl, yes I have
You've been trippin' on me—we gonna work it on out

Yeah, out, yeah, out, yeah—
We gonna work it on out
Yeah, out, yeah, out, yeah—
We gonna work it on out
Work it out
Work it out...
We gonna work it on out
Work it out
Work it out...
We gonna work it on out

I've been trippin' on you, girl, yes I have
You've been trippin' on me—we gonna work it on out
I've been trippin' on you, girl, yes I have
You've been trippin' on me—we gonna work it on out
