Lyrics Beat Me to It - Brendan Maclean

Beat Me to It

Pass me a peg
I’ll still put out your laundry
Pass you a bandage
And tie up my old knee
It’s not that I’m alone
It’s you’re not here
You still come around the mountains when you come
With an ace up my sleeve
I am outplayed
I’m glad you met my friends
I just wish you and them had stayed
But you beat me to it
And you beat me to it
And where is the home that we’ll live in?
The baker we’ll buy from?
The home that we’ll live in
The baker…
Pass me a peg, I’ll still put out your laundry
See all the new shirts
And old shirts bought for me bought back
It’s not that I’m alone
Not just that I’m alone
‘Cause you beat me to it
It’s you beat me to it
And where is the home that we’ll live in
The baker we’ll buy from?
The baker we buy from
You bought his cake, you brought him home
And me to it
And you beat me to it
And you beat me to it
Whoa, yeah
