| Saturday, baby, a sweet afternoon |
| Head out the window, a ghost of the moon |
| Follows us closely that look in her eye |
| Knows we've been waiting for a change in the tide, yeah |
|
| And you say |
| I'd give up my weekend, I'd give it a try |
| It takes a new meaning as you roll on your side |
| A shuffle of paper, our keys on the dash |
| It won't be forever but we know it'll last |
|
| Somebody else might say we've gone sideways (sideways) |
| Sayin' we traded up freedom for chains, am I right? |
| But somehow these guardrails turned us around |
| And gave us our own little highway |
| To throw ourselves down |
|
| Work it out one day at a time |
| Is the only thing on my mind |
| We might not get it all right |
| But don't hang on too tight |
|
| One goddamned day at a time |
| Is the only thing on my mind |
| Don't hang too long a line |
| And don't hang on too tight |
|
| It's me and you baby, the world's out there dying |
| Look at it falling into the deep side |
| And sure we'll find ourselves slipping in time |
| But it's me and you baby, we'll be alright |
|
| Somebody else might say we've gone sideways (sideways) |
| Sayin' we traded up freedom for chains, am I right? |
| (Am I right) |
| But somehow these guardrails turned us around |
| And gave us our own little highway |
| To throw ourselves down |
|
| Work it out one day at a time |
| Is the only thing on my mind |
| We might not get it all right |
| But don't hang on too tight |
|
| One goddamned day at a time |
| Is the only thing on my mind |
| Don't hang too long a line |
| And don't hang on too tight |
|
| Take a second just to let it in |
| We'll never be those kids in California again |
| But we'll be something else |
| Just you and me, kid |
|
| It's me and you baby |
| (One day at a time) |
| It's me and you baby |
| (Is the only thing on my mind) |
| It's me and you baby |
| (One day at a time) |
| It's me and you baby |
| (Is the only thing on my mind) |
|
| It's me and you baby |
| (One day at a time) |
| It's me and you baby |
| (Is the only thing on my mind) |
| It's me and you baby |
| (One day at a time) |
| It's me and you baby |
| (It's me and you baby) |
| (It's me and you baby) |
