If I never get married
Is there something wrong with me
I don’t dream about the dress or someone to get old with
I’d rather be free
If I never have children
Will I have been all I can be
If all I do is put words onto paper
Will I leave a legacy
If there ain’t no right way
There ain’t no wrong
We get all worked up about what everybody wants
There’s no such thing as wasted time
So whatever you’re doin’ you’re doin’ just fine
It’s uncomfortable to field the questions
When you go against the grain
But that ain’t nothin’ like the chains of the prison
Of what everybody thinks
So line up your picket fences
I’ll load up my RV
I’ll be happy drunk, dancin’ at your weddin’
While you help me chase my dreams
‘Cause if there ain’t no right way
There ain’t no wrong
We get all worked up about what everybody wants
There’s no such thing as wasted time
So whatever you’re doin’ you’re doin’ just fine
No, there ain’t no right way
There ain’t no wrong
We get all worked up about what everybody wants
There’s no such thing as wasted time
So whatever you’re doin’ you’re doin’ just fine

A very clever songwriter and an album that bears many, many repeat listens. Worth the price for the Little Feat reference (in Tehachapi) alone, but it's her way with an image that sticks longest. "You left the building in a flurry / Had your boots on in the house." Caoimhín
