She looked me over and I guess she thought I was all right
All right in a sort of a limited way for an off-night
She said don't I know you from the cinematographer's party?
I said, “Who am I to blow against the wind?”
 
[Chorus]
I know what I know ... I'll sing what I said
We come and we go, that's a thing that I keep in the back of my head
I know what I know ... I'll sing what I said
We come and we go, that's a thing that I keep in the back of my head
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
She said there's something about you that really reminds me of money
She was the kind of a girl who could say things that weren't that funny
Page 9/30
I said, “What does that mean, I really remind you of money?”
She said, “Who am I to blow against the wind?”
 
[Chorus]
I know what I know ... I'll sing what I said
We come and we go, that's a thing that I keep in the back of my head
I know what I know ... I'll sing what I said
We come and we go, that's a thing that I keep in the back of my head

[Verse 3]
She moved so easily, all I could think of was sunlight
I said, “Aren't you the woman who was recently given a Fulbright?”
She said, “Don't I know you from the cinematographer's party?
I said, “Who am I to blow against the wind?”
 
[Chorus]
I know what I know ... I'll sing what I said
We come and we go, that's a thing that I keep in the back of my head
I know what I know ... I'll sing what I said
We come and we go, that's a thing that I keep in the back of my head
 
[Chorus]
