Lyrics Back In Your Life - Jonathan Richman, The Modern Lovers

Back In Your Life

Well, take me way up north to meet your mom and dad
So they’ll see that Jonathan ain’t quite so bad
I want to be back in your life
I want to be back in your life
Baby baby baby
Baby baby baby
Take me to the fields you used to roam
So your pal Jonathan can call them home
When I’m back in your life
I want to be back in your life
Baby baby baby
Baby baby baby
Well, take me to your favorite covered bridge
And the road that leads high o’er the ridge
I want to be back in your life
I want to be back in your life
Baby baby baby
Baby baby
Well, gimme a break, bang-bang, gimme a break
Bang-bang, gimme a-well
Show me the saddle, and show me the stirrup
And then we’ll help your daddy when he goes out for maple syrup
I want to be back in your life
I want to be back in your life
Baby baby baby
Baby
I will wait a long time if that’s what it takes
But someday I want to help your momma when she brings out the pancakes
I want to be back in your life
I want to be back in your life
Baby baby
I want to be back in your life
And time’s a-wastin', cause what once was a puppy is now a dog
And what once was a piglet is now a hog
And I want to be back in your life
