Everybody's gonna go downtown same hang with the same old crowd

Talking like it's just the greatest thing you've ever seen

Telling me that if I don't go I'll be the one missin' out

Yeah but I don't really think I'm gonna miss a thing

As for myself I'm just as well

With something else in mind (like)

[Chorus:]

Blue skies and amber sunshine

As far as I can see

It's just me and my sweet baby

And that's just fine with me

Lay me down in the tall green grass be still and let the world go by

Baby let our minds wander like the river does

Or find a place we can hide away where all we do is take our time

Making life and loving sweeter than it ever was

Take the whirlwind that life has been

And trade it in for the freedom of

[Chorus:]

Blue skies and amber sunshine

As far as I can see

It's just me and my sweet baby

And that's just fine with me

Everything's coming up roses

Everything's feeling right

We got the naysayers supposing

It may not last but it just might
