that s the way

akustik bir led zeppelin klasiği. led zeppelin 3 albümünden.

i don't know how i'm gonna tell you
i can`t play with you no more,
i dont know how im gonna do what mama told me,
my friend, the boy next door.
i can`t believe what people saying
you`re gonna let your hair hang down
i`m satisfied to sit here working all day long,
you`re in the darker side of town.
and when i`m out i see you walking,
why don`t your eyes see me
could it be you`ve found another game to play,
what did mama say to me.
*that`s the way,
oh, that`s the way it ought to be,
yeah, yeah, mama say
that`s the way it ought to stay.
and yesterday i saw you standing by the river,
and weren`t those tears that filled your eyes,
and all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
had they got you hypnotized?
and yesterday i saw you kissing tiny flowers
but all that lives is born to die.
and so i say to you that nothing really matters
and all you do is stand and cry.
i don`t know what to say about it,
when all you ears have turned away
but now`s the time to look and look again at what you see,
is that the way it ought to stay?
that`s the way
that`s the way it oughtta be
oh don`t you know now
mama said. thats the way its gonna stay, yeah.
