Yoakam, Dwight - Waterfall Lyrics
If I had a waterfall
We wouldn't wonder, not at all
How much fun each day was gonna be
If I had a mountain top
Climbing way high up to look and see
If I had a jellyfish
I betcha we would never miss
A single peanut butter kiss or squeeze
If I had a waterfall
It might not make no sense at all
But that won't matter much to you and me
I guess just to show us, what livin's for
And my heart still believes that love
For what we need can be enough
If we'll just stop keepin' score
If I had a big giraffe
That tried to dance and made us laugh
Every smile and giggle would be free
If I had a big moonlight
We'd turn it back on every night
Just so the dark could try and get some sleep
And if I had a rocket ship
We'd go places really quick
Then have the time to stop and get ice cream
If I had a big giraffe
He'd have to take a real long bath
And that's why waterfalls are really neat
Babies get born, even in a war
I guess just to show us, what livin's for
And my heart still believes that love
For what we need can be enough
If we'll just stop keepin' score
If I had an everything
We could stand out in the rain
And only feel the drops we wanted to
If I had a wonderful
We could play out in the snow
And never have to wear our socks and shoes
If I had a pot of luck
I wouldn't have to spend a buck
And get all the stuff we needed for a sneeze
If I had an everything
We wouldn't get wet in the rain
And ridin' waterfalls would be a breeze
If I had a big giraffe
He'd have to take a real long bath
And that's why waterfalls are really neat

How could you not applaud this genius
Cannot stop playing this...a reminder that we need to remember the joy in life even when life is hard. Love, love, love this!!!
Thats how life was meant to be,innocent and joyous..Brilliant
This is a glorious piece of whimsy,I just love it
Drums sound so good muted.
He sounds so good! Still the kewlest cat in country beside Marty Stuart! Honorable mention to Jack White.
OMG, AWESOME.
The only country artist I listen to. But Dwight isn't country, he has a sound his own.
Love this song 🌊
Yes water falls and no keeping score
Love this song
So many possible influences on this lovely song and yet it's incredibly unique. Whimsical for a bit and then it pulls you back, only to return to whimsy again. You really have to color outside the lines to write something like this and only Dwight could perform it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Could've done any genre. A major, major artist. Always getting compared to country great, and rightly so, but I don't think there's been more than a handful of recording artists in American music history with this level of versatility; never mind in country music.
Cuando estoy de "mala leche" subo al coche, pongo a Dwight, conduzco y escucho...
Dwight looks Good in that tux💕💕💕💕
Love Love it
Dwight is the sweetest💕💕💕💕
Dwight is the sweetest, love him💕💕💕💕
Dear Dwight,

💓 Dwight! This song really helped sooth me through some tough moments (on more than one occasion)... and I'm sure there'll be more occasions when I need it.😊 I couldn't find the songwriter when I searched...
Dwight wrote it.
Dwight what happen to your pretty eyes? They are still so pretty . Lovely sweet smile too . Love your great singing . Sounding so so good !!! Listening every day lately . ~~Ava~~
Your new stuff is far from your roots. Its nowhere the old stuff as we know you. But i must say you did real good on ( Its nevet alright) lot of feeling.the horns fit in just right.I hope you come back home where you belong.
HEY SWEETPEA........WHEN YOU GET OLD IM GONNA ASK YOU WHY YOUR BREAST SAG DOWN TO YOUR KNEES......AND WHY YOUR FACE LOOKS LIKE A WORK BENCH ! YOU DUMBASS.
Hey Joe,
while i agree with the "HEY SWEETPEA" and the "YOU DUMBASS" .....
the part in between is really unnecessarily rude, and doesn't make YOU a better person.
..just sayin'..

Thanks Nancy for putting the lyrics here for us!! xo
Thanks Nancy a magical song
Always good to listen to DW.!!!
Greatest ever
Dumb guys out there, always negative, Dwight is a great and fantastic country and i really enjoy his style of singing and his songs with its music. Always appreciate the talented singers to whom God gave a special gift. So, please dont get so jealous and envious of Dwight and say all sort of rubbish which never fits Dwight. From Malaysia
There are millions of people who adore Dwight and who are in awe of his immense musical talent,I am happy to admit That I am just one of those fans,but there is still a myriad of envious people..Envy is a terrible thing
WATER FALLS, is the most interestIng lyrics Song, I find. makes you hope about it Dwight. Anita
Waterfalls is a beautifully arranged Song, I like it very much Dwight. Anita
What a beautiful song and only Dwight Yoakam Can pull off a change in direction in music and still make it work. THREE PAIRS is a magnificent album & every song deserves not only air play but NUMBER 1 ratings. Dwight was Number 1 from the first album he made in the 80s and still is in 2015.
Ooooo I really like this song! Oh this man can sing!
Great tune, drum's rhythm and dwight;s voice made all the song
