You Can't Take a Spiderweb Home
This is a song about enjoying nature just the way it is
I'm a songwriter, just learning to be a performer.
Story behind the song
Just a simple observation; spider webs are beautiful to look at but don't transport well . . .
Lyrics
YOU CAN’T TAKE A SPIDER WEB HOME
VERSE ONE
THERE ARE THINGS IN THIS WONDERFUL WORLD OF OURS
THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO CLAIM,
BUT SOME THINGS ARE MORE BEAUTIFUL
WHEN THEY REMAIN THE SAME.
CHORUS
OH, YOU CAN’T TAKE A SPIDER WEB HOME WITH YOU,
YOU CAN’T TAKE A SPIDERWEB HOME WITH YOU,
THERE ARE MANY THINGS THAT YOU CAN DO,
BUT YOU CAN’T TAKE A SPIDER WEB HOME.
VERSE TWO
YOU CAN HAUL A GREAT BIG PINECONE
YOU CAN CARRY SOME SPONGEY MOSS
YOU CAN LUG A LUMPY LAVA ROCK
YOU CAN SAVE A PRETTY PIECE OF BARK
REPEAT CHORUS (WITH BUT ,YOU CAN’T TAKE…)
INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE
VERSE THREE
A SPIDER WEB IS PRETTY; THAT IS TRUE
AND THE DEW SHINES BRIGHT WHEN THE SUN SHINES THROUGH
IN BUSHES AND GARDENS, CRANNIES AND NOOKS
IF YOU FIND A SPIDERWEB JUST STOP AND LOOK
REPEAT CHORUS
