lyrics

Anna and the Yurt and Me Bat Bennett

Things don’t always go the way you want them
The cost of living spins out of control
Instead of a guitar, or a brand new fancy car
I’d gladly trade them all for a bamboo fishing pole

I’m gonna live in a yurt with Anna
Anna just makes me feel swell
Do what we please,
She makes me weak in the knees
Give up all our stuff
So we can live in the trees

I’m gonna live in a yurt with Anna
Oohwee how happy we will be
Gonna downsize—got to minimize
Just Anna and the yurt and me

Most likely we will farm some armadillos
And herd them to a pasture of their own
Take an armadillo bone, learn how to clone
And beam like happy parents
When we see how they’ve grown

We’re gonna throw away all our computers
And live without instant messaging
Love will abound
With the easier life we’ve found
Riding armadillos with our knees dragging the ground



I’m gonna live in a yurt with Anna
Anna just makes me feel swell
Do what we please,
She makes me weak in the knees
Give up all our stuff
So we can live in the trees

I’m gonna live in a yurt with Anna
Oohwee how happy we will be
Gonna downsize—got to minimize
Just Anna and the yurt and me

Anna, I love you madly
And everything I’ll give up gladly
Anna you make me just swoon
On the deck of the yurt
By the light of the moon

We’ll build our little yurt out on a hillside
And live beside a margarita stream
Life is such a breeze
Skinning up our knees
Just Anna and the yurt and me

about

Bat Bennett

Amazing.
Phenomenal. Unbelievable. These are the adjectives most commonly used to describe the Singer/Guitarist from Flower Mound, whether they are talking about his voice, or his guitar playing. Now in his fifth year as a Solo Performer on the National stage, Bat leaves quite an impression wherever he plays.
Amazing guitar playing, wonderful storytelling, absolutely delightful.
