The Garden

[Intro] I went walking in the garden I was tripping on snakes And I ain't asking for your loving I'm just asking what your love is gonna take Ignorance is bliss when you're young enough to kiss [Verse 1] Young men don't need pardons How much love you gonna make Keep your head above the water And breathe before the ice of the lake [Chorus 1] I ain't gonna let him twist my wrist I ain't gonna let him kiss these lips no oh-oh [Verse 2] You've been falling close to arson Did you leave your pills at home? You got a problem with your head And the doctor says you shouldn't be alone [Chorus 2] Well I got hips, and you got lips I plan to keep them oh-oh-oh [Verse 3] This ain't Johnny Carson I've got thoughts that ain't my own I'm talking black souls dressed in red And things that I never shoulda known True love has its benefits And I plan to reap 'em oh oh oh oh [Chorus 3] You got hips, and I got lips I plan to keep 'em, oh-oh-oh-oh OH!
