Slick Skies and Baby Oil
acoustic folk melodicLyrics
[Verse]
Johnny's sliding on the kitchen floor
Mama's wrenchin' tight the bathroom door
Little sister's giggling
Eyes all bright
Baby oil turns a rough day light
[Verse 2]
Grandpa’s rocking chair squeaks and groans
His tired bones
Oh how they moan
Anoint them joints with a liquid miracle
Baby oil
Just another old folk’s ritual
[Chorus]
Slick skies and baby oil dreams
Soft hands beneath the moonlight beams
We'll dance on floors so slippery and free
In the land of never-aging memories
[Verse 3]
Out by the meadow where the wild grass grows
Jack's got a bottle and he's rubbing his toes
Got a shine on his boots and a lonesome grin
Baby oil fights the world’s cold and sin
[Verse 4]
Where the river bends and the cattails sway
Suzy's got a secret she can't give away
A little sparkle of hope in an old brown vial
Baby oil keeps her heart agile
[Chorus]
Slick skies and baby oil dreams
Soft hands beneath the moonlight beams
We'll dance on floors so slippery and free
In the land of never-aging memories
