Cody Simpson - Free Album Lyrics

She looks good in the morning sun
But even better with a thigh dot on
Feather in her head, flower in her hair
And I love the way that she just don't care

She got a cat that she calls Tattoo
She got herself a couple tattoos too yeah
And when she drinks you know she love a cigarette
Got a little black pearl hanging around her neck

No, she ain't one for commotion
She living just like the ocean

She just wanna be free
Just let her be
I'll take a ride on the breeze
Why can't you see?
She just wanna be cool
And doing what she do
A bad feed swaying to a laid back beat
She just wanna be free

She blowing smoke rings in my head
To collide I scope the dreams running on my bed
And I know, I know I know I know
We gonna take it slow

The kind of soul that can do no wrong
A little soul to the earth that I blew so wrong
And I know, I know I know I know
She gonna take it slow

She just wanna be free
Just let her be
I'll take a ride on the breeze
Why can't you see?
She just wanna be cool
And doing what she do
Bad feed swaying to a laid back beat
Baby doll, she just wanna be free

She like to keep it emotion, woah
She's steady flow like the ocean

Oh, she just wanna be free, so free
Just let her be
I'll take a ride on the breeze, baby please
Why can't you see?
She just wanna be cool
Doing what she do
Bad feed swaying to a laid back beat
She just wanna be free

Hey Bruce,
Untie my noose
Open up a bottle of
Whatever you choose
You see the naked truth
It's only truth sometimes
'Coz if you're looking for lies
That's what you gonna find

[Chorus:]
I gotta free my soul from the troubles of lately
Follow my heart wherever it takes me
Let it flow on by like a piece of driftwood

Just a piece of driftwood (yeah)
A piece of driftwood

You win some, you lose some
And some that you win, you really lose
You get some, you give some
You trade a little piece of your youth (oh)
It's nothing makes me happier than singing the blues
Set my big brown hat to my black pointed shoes
(I'm thinking about it)

[Chorus]

Like a piece of driftwood
A piece of driftwood
Ooh, like a piece of driftwood

Ain't no mind to these troubles on the telephone lines
The sun still shines, we got board and grind
It's time to start baking, got no time to decline
The earth awakes you, yes, the simple pleasures of mine
Yours if you want them, you got the day
Find wealth in the living and you'll never be grave
A piece is missing from your puzzle
It's the piece that you need
It's place of mind you gonna find meditate by the sea
Be free with all trees in all the air that you breath (yeah)
They can't take away your soul but they can take all your pride
Slow ride, gonna sleep in the forest tonight
You gonna, you gonna sleep in the forest tonight
Are you gonna sleep in the forest?
'Coz

[Chorus]

Ooh, la-like a piece of driftwood
La-la-la-like a piece of driftwood (yeah, oh)

You used to say
That all it takes is a dollar and a daydream,
But now you'd do
You'd do anything to deflate me
When you were down and when you cried
Who was there, right by your side, baby?

But now I'm out the door
I won't waste no time thinking about you anymore
'Cause I got new girls, new problems
I won't waste no time talking about you anymore
'Cause I got new girls, new problems

I used to think that all it took was a little love
I guess that's not true, 'cause now I know
That it's not enough

When I was down
And I was crying
You weren't around
You were lying
And when you were down
I was trying
To lift you up, feather in the wind
I'll never do that again

'Cause now I'm out the door
I won't waste no time thinking about you anymore
'Cause I got new girls, new problems
I won't waste no time talking about you anymore
'Cause I got new girls, new problems

(Break it down! Come on!)
Uhh baby got got another another thing coming
Uhh baby got got another another thing coming
Uhh baby got got another another thing coming, coming
Ooh that's why, that's why, that's why I'm going, going, going
I got 99 problems, but you ain't one anymore
'Cause I got a new girl, with some new damn problems baby
Ooh It's a bitch when your ex-girl's talking to your next girl
I got a new girl with some new problems
(Jam it out! Come on!)

I know I'll never be the apple of your eye
But I pick you a flower if you like
I know I'll never be the stars up in your sky
But I'll pick you a flower if you like
She loves me, she loves me not
She says she love me has she forgotten that she loves me
Love me one more time
I know I'll never be the apple of your eye
But I can pick you a flower if you like

'cause I meet you down by the end of the road
Where the sunset glows and the garden grows
I got one pair of shoes with 20 holes in the toes
And I would walk 20 miles just to get to those blue eyes
If you will smile for me to my surprise I would stay for a while to see what comes next
Or we could take off our clothes and have long conversations in french

I know I'll never be the apple of your eye
But I'll pick you a flower if you like
I know I'll never be the stars up in your sky oh no
But I'll pick you a flower if you like
And she loves me, she loves me not
She says she loves me has she forgotten that she loves me
Love me one more time
I know I'll never be the apple of your eye
But I pick you a flower if you like

Let's go
Roses are red, violets are blue
But it is true I'd be through if I don't have you
So I just chill up on the hill picking daffodils
Making wishes, about you mrs

'cause I know I'll never be the apple of your eye
But I'll pick you a flower

She's like a medicine to a sick mind
She'll be a river, so flow with her if you want
She's like a diamond to a rich man
She'll be all you need when you've got everything and more

She'll be anything to anyone
But she gives nothing back to me

She's so thotful, yeah yeah
Thotful as she can be
Aw no no, no no no
She's so thotful
But she don't ever think about me

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la li

She's so thotful
Aw no no, no no no
But she don't ever think about me

She got her looks right from her mama's sides, all right
Her eggs are fried but she will smile and heat your tea
She makes you wish upon a dandelion
While she, she picks the money off your tree

She'll be anything to anyone, woah
But she gives nothing back to me

She's so thotful, yeah yeah
Thotful as she can be
Aw no no, no no no
She's so thotful
But she don't ever think about me

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la li

She's so thotful
Aw no no, no no no
But she don't ever think about me

I told her when I grow up I would be a star
So she went down the road and pawned my guitar
And said, "Stay home and don't be a fool"
Then I see her round the corner with a you know who

My man Big Lou, Rolls Royce, top choice
Got a couple houses and a whole lot of toys
But she don't wanna play with mine
No she don't no no no
She don't wanna play with mine

She'll be nice enough to everyone she meets
Then she, then she'll gut them til they bleed

Cause she's so thotful, yeah yeah
Thotful as she can be
Aw she's so thotful
But she don't ever think about me
No no no no no no
She don't ever think about me, yeah yeah

When you're down and you can't call upon your mama no more
You can call, you can call on me
When you're low, we'll get high and dip our toes down in the ties
Cause no one's there to tell us "Come inside"

And I know you believe in angels
And you know I believe in you

And I know everybody goes through changes
But that just means we're all the same
All best friends start out as strangers
So rest easy cause I'm your friend

And you're lost and you can't find your way out of the trees
I will see the signal you set into the breeze
You know me well
I will rescue thee

And I know you believe in lucky chance
That you know I mediate under the circumstance

And I know everybody goes through changes
But that just means we're all the same
All best friends start out as strangers
So rest easy cause I'm your friend

Sometimes when the sun is out, the rain is really pouring down
If you don't wanna think about it, build up all the float around it
We are all the architects of everything that's coming next
Together we can build a bridge and walk away from all of this

When you're down and you can't call upon your mama anymore

Woah baby, woah baby
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Everyday people like you
And me just wanna live naturally
Times are true and you told me
"Nothing gonna get us down, can't you see?"

I said if it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me, oh baby
If it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me, woah baby

People all around making sounds and all kinds of noise
If I could only get there, then I could enjoy
Who they tryna be? Who they tryna fool, let's change the mood right now
Turn down the lights, it's time to cool it down

If it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me, woah no no no
If it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me, woah baby

Yesterday, what we could be? It don't matter
Getting more of what we don't need, it don't matter
Everyday I'm less of you
It doesn't matter to me
No, woah
Bring it on down, bring it on down to me
Sing it all down, sing it all down to me
Bring it on down, bring it on down to me

If it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me, woah no no no
If it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me
I say if it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me, oh no no no
If it don't matter to you, it don't matter to me, no no no no don't matter

Standing in that grocery line, paper or plastic?
Why can I not understand the questions that they're asking?
Young boy you should slow your mind, enjoy the traffic
This day only happens once, listen to the bees, they hum, they hum

And I said hey, if I was a bee
Maybe I could see
And I said hey, if I was a bee
Maybe I could see, maybe I could see

If I was a bee, I would chase the hunnies
All the way to where them flowers grow, if I was a bee, if I was a bee
If I was a bee, I would catch a bus
And sit back and see the world for what it was, what is it now?

And I said hey, if I was a bee
Maybe I could see, oh right
And I said hey baby, if I was a bee
Maybe I could see

(La la la la la la baby, oh no)
Cause if the bees go, we go, so let go your ego
And if the seas go, we go, so don't spread no evil
Until the seas are the people cause we are all equal
And we are one people, so let go your ego
And if the bees go, we go, so let go your ego
And if the seas go, we go, so don't spread no evil
Until the seas are the people cause we are all equal
And we are one people, get out the house and chase the sun

Chase the sitting sun, chase the sun, chase the setting sun

I'm usually a yes man, I always say yes man
Walking through the streets, through the trees, in a big black winter coat, woah
You'll find me at the bus stop or sitting at the coffee shop
Sipping on a café au lait, or something that I can't pronounce, yeah

Cause you know I'm never in a rush
What I got is more than enough, oh

I like my living easy, I don't need much of anything
That real good feeling, the kind that makes you wanna sing
I don't mind being on my own, but I would love it if you came along
So we can live it easy, living easy, that real good feeling, living easy

I never say no man, I'm just another no man
Walking through the desert just for pleasure, never looking for a treasure chest
Where we gonna go man? I tell you I don't know man
But it you're looking for adventure, you can join me on my endless quest

Cause you know I'm never in a rush

I like my living easy, I don't need much of anything
That real good feeling, the kind that makes you wanna sing
I don't mind being on my own, but I would love it if you came along
So we can live it easy, living easy, that real good feeling, living easy

(Get down c'mon)
I like a little mahi-mahi on my taco on the weekend
I can hear them birds singing, I've been sleeping on the speakers
When I'm walking down the street in barefeet and concrete
Never thinking, just leaning on the truth behind a meaning

So easy, I don't need much of anything
That real good feeling, the kind that makes you wanna sing
I don't mind being on my own, but I would love it if you came along
So we can live it easy, living easy, that real good feeling, living easy

Have you been dreaming of the wilderness?
Have you been wondering how far it is
We will go just to show that we're the mightiest
On the globe as it rolls into oblivion

Have you been thinking bout the ocean too?
There's heartless hands letting the oil through
Till the blue isn't blue, will you take a stand
To the man with a plan to wash away the truth

Are you unconscious in your troubled mind?
Don't forget mountains were made to climb
To the sky, that's where you'll find crystal clementine
Looking down with a sigh, as she begins to cry
And then it rains upon the trees with their roots still in the ground
Let the water trickle down into the thirsty river mouth
The sun will shine on through every shadow of a doubt
Save us from this endless drought

Like hiding gemstones in the warm sand, we all wish to drift away
Silver sunshine in my cold hands, the moon's a mirror on my day
Willow trees under the gold sky, and California shows her age
A picture in my pocket from a long lost lover to keep with me on my way

The more you wonder, the more you learn
The more you love, the less you'll hurt
No matter what you do or where you stand
The world is in the palm of your hand, the palm of your hand

Plant the seed and let the flower grow
Stop stealing diamonds cause they're, they're just a stone
The world will give us all an equal chance
It's all in the palm of your hand

The more you wonder, the more you learn
The more you love, the less you'll hurt
No matter what you do or where you stand
The world is in the palm of your hand, the palm of your hand

[G Love:]
No use crying 'bout lost love
A heart gooder was back in the day
It was good alright, pretty damn good but not that good in the way
It's gone gone gone gone gone
And now I spend too much time thinking 'bout people do the things they do
Why take it personally? No way
I said where they at don't got too much to do with you at all
Models will be the first ones to walk away

[G Love & Cody Simpson:]
After all you is, is another dog barking in the yard
After all you is, is another empty glass sitting on the bar
After all you is, is a spinning tire on the car
You rode today, you rode tomorrow
So make a little love, take a little love
Give a little more than you get
Got to love love love yourself before you love love love somebody else
You got to love yourself, you got to love yourself, yeah

[Cody Simpson:]
They say don't cry 'bout spilled milk
Today's just about good enough, better than nothing
But not at all what I thought it be, I ain't meant to live this way
Take down the G's telling me what to do and what to say

[G Love & Cody Simpson:]
After all you is, is another dog barking in the yard
After all you is, is a fallen down house of cards
After all you is, is a thumping in my racing heart
Beat today, and beat tomorrow
So make a little love, take a little love
Give a little more than you get
Take a little love, make a little love, give a little more than you get
Make a little love, take a little love, give a little more than you get
Got to love love love yourself
Before you love love love somebody else
You got to love yourself
You got to love yourself

[G Love & Cody Simpson:]
Just sitting on corner, tryna go down in history
Taking it slow cause don't know better
You could travel 10 thousand miles all around the world
Tryna figure it out and end up back where you started from
And everybody always wanna know what life is all about
But you gotta live to figure it out, c'mon

[G Love & Cody Simpson:]
Make a little love, take a little love, give a little more than you get
Take a little love, make a little love, give a little more than you get
Make a little love, take a little love, give a little more than you get
You got to love love love yourself, love yourself

She said she don't watch the news
It's all bad, it's all sad, it turns her brown eyes blue
She said she don't watch the tube
She dreams big, she sleeps in whenever she's got something else to do, she takes off her shoes

And she takes a walk through the city, look at all the pretty things she sees
She's a happy lil hippie, nothing gonna get her down
She's got a diary for the memories that she'll never read
Cause she's a happy lil hippie, nothing gonna get her down, oh
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na

And if you're quiet you can hear her
Singing all alone or dancing in the mirror
Cause she said she don't like to party, oh
With people she don't know, cause she likes to let go and take her clothes off, she takes her clothes off

Walking through the city, look at all the pretty things she sees
Cause she's a happy lil hippie, nothing gonna get her down
She got a diary for the memories that she'll never read
Cause she's a happy lil hippie, nothing gonna get her down
Na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na na

And if you get the chance to meet her, woah
I just hope you never leave her with a frown, woah

She says she don't like the news
It's all bad, it's all sad, it turns her brown eyes blue

And now she walk around town with her head sewn on the wrong way
Woke up on the wrong side of the bed
And if you see her, just remember
She's looking up while you're looking down, turn your whole world around for a kiss

Little miss like to put on blush, paint her lips red
Riding 'round the city looking pretty in a pink Corvette
She got her rhinestone phone, somebody on the other line
The sky's looking red but she looking fine, hey hey, she's still smiling

She got her name from a street in Brooklyn
Said her frown is just a smile turned upside down

Now she walk around town with her head sewn on the wrong way
Woke up on the wrong side of the bed
And if you see her, just remember
She's looking up while you're looking down, turn your whole world around for a kiss
Oh baby, sing it one last time, yeah

She hide her name but her daddy took it from her now
Said her frown is just a smile, twist turned upside down just like this

Little miss like to put on blush, paint her lips red, oh
Walk around town in a gown down there on the sunset
Lights are on but everybody's gone, sleeps all day, party 'til dawn
But hey hey, she's still smiling, she still smiles
