Ella Hooper - The Basics and Stuff lyrics

Artist: Ella Hooper

album: Small Town Temple


Didn't come from nothing but I didn't come from much
We had what we needed, the basics and stuff
Our toys were wooden, our clothes were old
The water ran brown and stank when the tank got low
And Jesse would play guitar every day
I'd sit in the sun, he'd sit in the shade
I didn't come from nothing but I didn't come from much
Our parents were teachers, and they taught us
Just to lie in the long grass, staring at the ants
Meditating before I knew what that meant
When we'd get those funny looks from the passers by
Tapping their temple, saying 'are we alright'
I think it only made me more and more myself
I knew who had raised me and that I could do quite well
But i left so soon
I left so soon
I left so soon
I left so soon
I left so soon
I left so soon
Didn't come from nothing but I didn't come from much
Had what we needed, the basics and stuff
