Just One Thing

This song was written during the summer of 2020 where I found myself busking outside and playing at Farmer’s Markets primarily. So through the course of the summer this song appeared from a variety of random statements in conversation sitting in the park smoking joints between songs, or things that were overheard and embellished upon. It started like so many other songs, as a joke but eventually found a place of it’s own and stuck. 

You ain’t gotta be rich, you ain’t gotta be pretty
You ain’t gotta have a fancy car just drive on over to me
You ain’t gotta be smart, you ain’t gotta be witty
Baby we could have it all if you just want it to be
But honey there’s just one thing that I never wanna see
That would be if you ever walked away from me
Darling there’s just one thing that I never wanna do
That would be if I ever stopped loving you

We can get you dressed up
Put on your makeup make you feel like you’re real pretty
But you’re already pretty to me
We can bring you downtown, introduce you to my friends
Hoping you stick around with me

I’d buy you a whole room full of shoes
We can go to any restaurant you choose
I’ll give you the keys to my car and my credit card
The day you marry me

But honey there’s just one thing that I never wanna see
That would be if you ever walked away from me
Darling there’s just one thing that I never wanna do
That would be if I ever stopped loving you
