"Settle Down" lyrics

"Settle Down"

If I seem a little crazy
Well, it's just because I am
But that ain't no call to talk behind my back
Sometimes I go de-railin'
When it's chaos in my mind
But all in all my wheels are mainly on the track...

So woncha settle down, settle down
Baby love, my baby love
Don't quit your faith in me

Well, I hear you when you whisper
And I've seen your nervous eyes
I've known your fear and held your doubtful hand
You're judging way too soon
You're underestimating me
Sometimes I rock a bit but I can stand...

So woncha settle down, settle down
Baby love, my baby love
Don't quit your faith in me

Out on the highway
Out on the cold road
Some lonesome losin' rounder wears a frown
And I could be there
Without a notion
If not for all the love you've brought around...

Yes... if I'm caught up in a whirlwind
Babe, I know I'll make it through
I've seen that spinning power rise and fall
I can ride it sailin' higher
I can ride it comin' down
It's a natural kind of cycle, babe, that's all...

So woncha settle down, uh settle down
Baby love, my baby love
Uh, don't quit your faith in me
Um... hum...
