Coolin Lyrics

Mama said, "Boy, stay clear of the water"
When you're blue and still catchin' fire
And I've learned from my father to listen to my mother
So I'm coolin', waitin' by the shore

Replayin' all my memories from Georgia
Passin' time to fill the void
Edging closer to the water
But I'm further than I wanna
So I'm coolin', waitin' by the shore

Pretendin' I'm away in California
Leavin' my shadow in the dust
It's like running from the altar to the arms of another
So I'm coolin', waitin' by the shore, oh

When mama said, "Boy, stay clear of the water"
When you're blue and still catchin' fire
And I've learned from my father to listen to my mother
So I'm coolin', waitin' by the shore
Still coolin', waitin' by the shore, oh yeah
Still coolin', waitin' by the shore, oh
Coolin' like my mama's boy

Mm, mm, mm, mm
