Lyrics/Song Structure:

======================

---> Play Riff 1 (x2)

---> 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 ***

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

---> Play Riff 5 over:

_/Nick: Yo, ***, whatever

\S.A.: It's time to find the kind, titillate the flow

_/Nick: It's better , can't say it any better

\S.A.: Swimmin' and Hummin', can't say it any better

---> Play Chorus/Solo over:

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 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:

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 Chorus/Solo(w/improv) over:

My Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby

My Stoney Baby, My Stoney Baby
