The One - Old 97's

I… ah got a check for nothing

All made out to someone

For I truly love myself

Murry says, «We're going to take the money sometime.»

Well it might as well be this time

We’re going to spend it all on ourselves

Ken, well he picked this bank at random

I said, «Do we shoot them?»

And he said, «Either way’s alright.»

Whistling boy that’s Philip, he’s our drummer

He does the theme from Endless Summer

Well he’s waiting out in our ride

Throw the money in the van

It all worked out just like we planned

Now the good times have begun

That’s not a fire, it’s just the sun

It’s like the old man said, «Take the money and run.»

What’s the rush?

Let’s take the one

Let’s take the one

Love

It gets passed around so freely

They’re so touchy and so feely

Well I’m hanging onto mine

I… ah like you California

Although I feel obliged to warn ya

We’re all going to rob you blind

What’s the point of cutting tracks?

With all this money in the back

Now the good times have begun

That’s not a fire, it’s just the sun

It’s like the old man said, «Take the money and run.»

What’s the rush?

Let’s take the one

Let’s take the one

Now the good times have begun

That’s not a fire, it’s just the sun

It’s like the old man said, «Take the money and run.»

What’s the rush?

Let’s take the one

Let’s take the one

Let’s take the one

Let’s take the one

Let’s take the one…

Let’s take the one…

Let’s take the one

Let’s take the one
