The Natural Way

© 1976/2001 John Hagius All Rights Reserved

(chorus)
The natural way,
The natural way.
Don't mind what they say
I'm gonna live it today
The natural way.

Don't worry what tomorrow may bring
'Cause tomorrow's a long time ago...
And it pains me to think of the future
When the present is treating me so.

(repeat chorus)

Well I'll give all my alms to the peasants
I'll give all my coats to the cold
I'll give all my food to the hungry
Won't surrender my youth to the old.

(repeat chorus)

Won't carry my dreams in my pockets
'Cause tomorrow I'll maybe get mugged
And I'll rest when my bone're feeling weary
When Atlas got tired, he shrugged.

(repeat chorus)

Go light me a candel on the alter
And pray for my misguided soul
Your religion don't bring me no comfort
And this virtue is takin' its toll.

(repeat chorus)

Well I ate all the food in my kitchen
And I read all the books on my shelf
If my mind and my stomach's still hungry,
guess I'll just have to feed 'em myself.
