Today's song is a fun little jig, perfect for this week and especially due to the cool rainy days.

Can't you see that it's just rainin'
There ain't no need to go outside

But baby, you hardly even notice
When I try to show you
this song It's meant to keep you
From doin' what you're supposed to
Like wakin' up too early
Maybe we could sleep in
I'll make you banana pancakes
Pretend like it's the weekend now

And we could pretend it all the time
Can't you see that it's just rainin'
There ain't no need to go outside

But just maybe, laka ukulele
Mama made a baby
I really don't mind the practice
Because you're my little lady
Lady, lady love me

Because I love to lay here lazy
We could close the curtains

Pretend like there's no world outside
And we could pretend that all the time
Can't you see that it's just raining
There ain't no need to go outside

Ain't no need, ain't no need
Can't you see, can't you see

Rain all day and I don't mind

The telephone singing, ringing, it's too early
Don't pick it up
We don't need to
We got everything we need right here
And everything we need is enough
It's just so easy
When the whole world fits inside of your arms

Do we really need to pay attention to the alarm
Wake up slow, wake up slow

But baby, you hardly even notice
When I try to show you this song
It's meant to keep you
From doin' what your supposed to
Like wakin' up too early
Maybe we could sleep in

I'll make you banana pancakes

Pretend like it's the weekend now
And we could pretend it all the time
Can't you see that it's just rainin'
There ain't no need to go outside

Ain't no need, ain't no need
Rain all day and I really, really, really don't mind
Can't you see, can't you see

We've got to wake up slow

wine and pancakes
I LOVE WINE!! I used this picture because the lyrics make a reference to the rain outside the window and what a better view than this one?

Ah, I gotcha. Christine and I are total winos, btw, we have been since 2000 when we began habitually wine tasting, then working at wineries in Santa Barbara and now Oregon. We should go take a day (after a night of music, of course) and hit-up some wineries in north Willamette Valley sometime. Just an idea...

I adore this song
This song reminds me of when I lived on Kauai, and I really did make banana pancakes with the one I loved.

It also makes me long for a new love, filled with those kinds of happy intimate moments that you have with
your lover.
