(Jesse Winchester)

Well goodness is it really real 
It would take a baby child to know the way I feel 
OH my flutter in the blue 
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you 

Ooh yeah I'm a sinner and 
I ain't some beginner 
I'll uncork a pint of trouble 
Sit down and drink a double 
I'm thirsty for somethin' lighter 
That'll get me even tighter 
And tighter until one day 
I think I hear angels play 

Well goodness is it really real 
It would take a baby child to know the way I feel 
On my flutter in the blue 
I would take the credit but it's thanks to you 

Now someday up in glory 
Well I'll weep and tell the story 
To someone who will smile and say 
You're a mess but you're my child 

Goodness is it real 
It would take a baby child to know the way I feel
