Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Riff 1 (x2)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
The fish who keeps on swimming, is the first to chill upstream
I want your fish right by me, That's how it has to be
---> Play Riff 2 over:
The songs I sing they don't mean a thing
If you're not there to hear it but then
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Soon is the time, you'll be by my side
---> Play Riff 3
---> Play Riff 4 over:
It's copesetic if you let it so set up and keep the
Down stream down and the up stream up
---> Play Riff 5 over:
Girlfriend boots & all you're looking fresh again
Move toward me so I can smell the sweetness of your flesh ***
Cool down your fine self when I
Find my way to the wetness of your sweet mouth
Sweetly in every way that you treat me
A fish story but you know it's picture perfect
Our morning glory every time that we wake
The morning ride is the longest ride take it
---> No guitar over:
_/Nick: Like this take it like that take a yin and a yang
\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow
_/Nick: Like my man jack sprat go down forever it's wetter
\S.A.: Swimmin' and Hummin' w/ a body and a soul
---> Play Riff 5 over:
_/Nick: Yo, ***, whatever
\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow
_/Nick: It's better , can't say it any better
\S.A.: Swimmin' and Hummin', can't say it any better
---> Play Chorus/Solo over:
My Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby
---> Play Riff 1 over:
And now I'm here with my friend Ruskie
In their house but they're not home
If they find out what's been on
They'll kick us out and we'll be gone
No pool and that's not too cool
---> Play Riff 2 over:
The songs I sing they don't mean a thing
If you're not there to hear it but then
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Soon is the time, you'll be by my side
---> Play Riff 3
---> Play Riff 4 over:
It's copesetic if you let it so set up and keep the
Down stream down and the up stream up
---> Play Riff 5 over:
My stoney, my baby, swings w/ the groovin'
Funk the groovin' thang whistlin'
As I rip my rhymes
Time and time again struttin'
And in the summertime
So screw it, strip down and be generic
Strip down and be a passenger strip down and be a messenger
In askin' why I'm born, I come up blank in the winter
In askin' why I'm born, I come up on when I'm on her
---> No guitar over:
_/Nick: My summer, his summer
\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow
_/Nick: It could be one to go down
\S.A.: Swimmin' and hummin' with a body and a soul
---> Play Riff 5 over:
_/Nick: to go down, forever
\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow
_/Nick: Together , and then I kiss
\S.A.: Swimmin' and Hummin', and then I kiss
---> Play Chorus/Solo(w/improv) over:
My Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby
My Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby
