Her Favorite Song Lyrics

by Mayer Hawthorne

Friday night and the scene is bright at Avalon
Walked straight to the bar in her party dress, yes
Told the bartender pour her a shot and make it strong

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e109387-mayer_hawthorne~her_favorite_song_lyrics.html ]
Because she needed cheering up
She proceeded to get drunk
You could see it tearing up
In her eyes

But when she gets home
She puts her headphones on
She plays her favorite song
And fades away
And when the music's on
She can do no wrong
And she feels safe and calm
And it's okay

And she says
Ba ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
Ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
The world keeps turning, life goes on
Yeah she says
Ba ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
Ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
The world keeps turning, life goes on

Night before, had a date with a boy from Highland Park
Said he'd meet her at the diner at 9 o'clock
Leather boots, eyeliner laid on extra dark

She got a table set for two
But he never made it through
And she tried to play it cool
As she cried

But when she gets home
She puts her headphones on
She plays her favorite song
And fades away
And when the music's on
She can do no wrong
And she feels safe and calm
And it's okay

And she says
Ba ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
Ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
The world keeps turning, life goes on
Yeah she says
Ba ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
Ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
The world keeps turning, life goes on

You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off

You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off, shake it
You got to shake it off

(You got to shake it off, shake it) [x3]
Ba ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
Ba dum ba dee ah dum ba
(You got to shake it off)
The world keeps turning, life goes on
[x3]
