Structure:
======================

Play Riff 1 over:
The fish who
keeps on swimming, is the first to chill upstream
I want your fish right by me, That's how it
has to be
---> Play Riff 2 over:
The songs I sing they don't mean a thing
If you're not there to hear it but
then
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Soon is the time, you'll be by my side
---> Play Riff 3
--->
Play Riff 4 over:
It's copesetic
if you let it so set up and keep the
Down stream down and the up stream up
---> Play Riff 5
over:
Girlfriend boots & all
you're looking fresh again
Move
toward me so I can smell the sweetness of your flesh damn
Cool down your fine self when I
Find my way to the wetness of your sweet
mouth
Sweetly in every way that
you treat me
A fish story but
you know it's picture perfect
Our morning glory every time that we wake
The morning ride is the longest ride take
it
---> No guitar over:
_/Nick: Like this take it like that take a yin and a yang
\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow
_/Nick: Like my man jack sprat go down
forever it's wetter
\S.A.:
Swimmin' and Hummin' w/ a body and a soul

My Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby

Play Riff 1 over:
And now I'm
here with my friend Ruskie
In
their house but they're not home
If they find out what's been on
They'll kick us out and we'll be gone
No pool and that's not too cool
---> Play Riff 2

The songs I sing they

If you're not

Soon is the time, you'll be by my

---> Play Riff 4 over:
It's copesetic if you let it so set up and
keep the
Down stream down and

---> Play Riff 5 over:
My stoney, my baby, swings w/ the groovin'
Funk the groovin' thang whistlin'
As I rip my rhymes
Time and time again struttin'
And in the summertime
So screw it, strip down and be
generic
Strip down and be a
passenger strip down and be a messenger
In askin' why I'm born, I come up blank in the winter
In askin' why I'm born, I come up on when
I'm on her
---> No guitar over:
_/Nick: My summer, his summer
\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow
_/Nick: It could be one to go down
\S.A.: Swimmin' and hummin' with a body and
a soul
---> Play Riff 5 over:
_/Nick: to go down, forever
\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow
_/Nick: Together , and then I kiss
\S.A.: Swimmin' and Hummin', and then I kiss
---> Play

My
Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby
My
Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby
