Must have heard the same song twenty times
Mama sang and put the make up on her eyes
We were getting ready to go
School and the work whistle blow
Everybody had to rush, rush, rush around
Rush, rush, rush around
I remember thinking this just can't be right
Got to be a better way to live you life
Slow like a soft Southern breeze
Nobody take time to breathe
Everybody had to rush, rush, rush around
Rush, rush, rush around
Ooo what you do, I dreamt of you yesterday
Ooo what you do, you come to me then fade away
Sometimes a memory is hard to bear
Don't know how a thing so old could still be there
When I fell the rain in my soul
I give it up and I go
Everybody had to rush, rush, rush around
Rush, rush, rush around
