The Right Thing

American Music Club


This song is dedicated to the chain of lies 
Handed down from generation to generation 
Like cancer through the ages 

Well you seem to be waiting 
For the thunder or the lightning 
To blow away all your bad luck baby 

Well you seem to be waiting 
For a big landslide to take you away 
But I don't think that a million bucks 
is really gonna change your luck 
I'm here to tell you that's too high a price to pay 

'Cause it don't take much of the right thing 

And if I stay by you 
Don't worry about it 
It don't take much for me to stay by you 
And if I love you too much 
Don't worry about it 
It don't take much for me to love you 

And they say that the world's gonna end with a whimper 
Well that's just the sound it makes anyway 
And I'm sure a bottle of some more million bucks 
would make it feel better 
But believe it or not I think that's too high a price to pay 

'Cause it don't take much of the right thing
