Whole Wide World - Joan Osborne

Nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world to gain I'm here on the blacktop The sun in my eyes Women and country on my mind Bolting me out Over the borderline Now there's no more love loss and no more shame No more digging holes or graves Nothing to lose but rivets and chains Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world to gain Was born in a stable and built like an ox Down in the pastures I learned how to walk Mama, she raised me to sing and just let 'em talk Said no rich man's worth his weight in dust Bury him down same as they'll do us God wants us busy, never giving up He wants nothing but the whole wide world for us Nothing but the whole wide world for us Nothing, nothing Well there's nothing but the whole wide world for us Nothing, nothing Well there's nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world for us We ain't got no money, can't get no love Never was too good at either of 'em I'm here for adventure whichever way it comes But what good is an angel that won't catch up Free falling now and I'm ready enough I give my tears and I give my blood I give nothing but the whole wide world for one Nothing but the whole wide world for one Nothing, nothing Give nothing but the whole wide world for one Nothing, nothing Give nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world for one

And I'm lying on the concrete Blurring the eyes of my vision Pulling threads out my socks And biting my hand as admission Lying on the bathroom Puking the food out my stomach Staring at manila walls And scraping the skin off of my neck And I'm affirming this newfound obsession with you With you, ego And I'm deleting this newfound compulsion to you To you, ergo Datamine and datamine and download and download the end The end, the end, the end Datamine and datamine and download and download the end The end, the end, the end And I'm a fruit bat Unable to combat with that The ceiling comes closer And it's dragging me down to my feet I'm dying in the bathroom Pulling the teeth out of my mouth Staring at the mirror And chugging some more mouthwash And I'm affirming this newfound obsession with you With you, ego And I'm deleting this newfound compulsion to you To you, ergo Datamine and datamine and download and download the end The end, the end, the end Datamine and datamine and download and download the end The end, the end, the end Datamine and datamine and download and download the end The end, the end, the end Datamine and datamine and download and download the end The end, the end, the end Datamine and datamine and download and download the end The end, the end, the end

Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Well, I found him in Pensacola In a trailer in the sand The man from the picture Creased and yellow in my hand Creased and yellow in my hand He was squinting and stubbled And standing in the door He said, "If you've come to take the car away I don't have it anymore I don't have it anymore" Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey He got the gospel on the radio And the gospel on TV He got all of the transcripts Back to 1963 Back to 1963 He said, "I sold my blood for money There wasn't any pain But I just can't stand the feeling It's in someone else's veins" It's in someone else's vei-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Vei-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Mama took me aside And she tried to change my mind She said, "Don't waste your time in looking There's nothin', nothin' left to find Nothin', nothin' left to find" So I left him in Pensacola In a trailer in the sand The man from the picture Creased and yellow in my hand Creased and yellow in my ha-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yay-yay Hey-hey, yay-yay Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey Hey-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey, yeah-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey

Whatever happened to this It was an island of bliss In this ridiculous place But now the river runs black And I don't know the way back I feel it going to waste We are the mongrels Underneath the table Fighting for the leavings Tearing us to shreds We are the mongrels Tearing up the floorboards Unaware of the banquet Up above our heads I reach across the divide I want to take you inside But something's holding me bound There is a thorn in my side That's coming on like a tide These tender feelings do drown We are the mongrels Underneath the table Fighting for the leavings Tearing us to shreds We are the mongrels Tearing up the floorboards Unaware of the banquet Up above our heads This is a chance for the prize It's waiting here in my eyes You hardly look at me now With every beat of my heart I want to make a new start But I don't seem to know how We are the mongrels Underneath the table Fighting for the leavings Tearing us to shreds We are the mongrels Rolling on the floorboards Unaware of the banquet Up above our heads
