Let It Flow
Chasing Youth: Dave McElroy's Invitation to Embrace Life's Flow
Lyrics
Verse:
Introduction of the verse
Girl I showed up to get you out of the house
Expressing the intention to take the girl out
Take you on down the road we used to hang out
Referencing a familiar road from the past
Turn up my radio and dance in my seat
Setting the mood with music and anticipation
I can't help but move when you're rockin the be ee eet
Feeling compelled to move and dance when the girl is around
Chorus
Introduction of the chorus
So let the good times roll
Encouraging the enjoyment of good times
Wherever they wanna roll
Emphasizing openness to wherever the good times lead
We gotta get that young before we get that old
Highlighting the importance of living youthfully
This life, it goes by, before we know it's gone
Reflecting on the fleeting nature of life
Come on let it go where it goes when it goes let it flow
Encouraging a carefree attitude and letting life unfold
Verse:
Transition to the second verse
We might end up driving to Boca Raton
Suggesting a possible destination, Boca Raton
Find us a boat that floats that we can float on
Desiring a relaxing time on a floating boat
Them cotton candy kisses turnin me on
Expressing the sweetness of romantic moments
I can't concentrate while I'm singin this song
Difficulty concentrating due to the enjoyable experience
Chorus
Reiteration of the chorus
So let the good times roll
Repeating the call to embrace good times
Wherever they wanna roll
Reinforcing openness to the unpredictable nature of joy
We only get that young before we get that old
Reiterating the significance of living in the present
This life it goes by before we know it's gone
Repeating the theme of life's fleeting nature
Come on let it go where it goes when it goes let it flow
Encouraging a relaxed and spontaneous approach to life
