    We're Going To Be Friends By The White Stripes

    I’d like to start by writing that you and I could very well be friends. Heck I’d hope that Jack White and I could be friends.Actually there is a Jack White that I am friends with but it’s not the same Jack White from the White Stripes. The Jack that I know is a drummer from the 80’s era of pop music. He helped me get a leg up in the industry a few years back. However, the Jack White that wrote this song We’re Going To Be Friends I’ve not yet met. It took me a few years of ignoring his music before I saw “It Might Get Loud”. That movie is what gave me a sense of respect for him. Massive respect. Shortly thereafter I had another friend who made me a playlist of their favorite music. In that playlist was this song “We’re Going To Be Friends”. It was a great bonding moment.

    The odd thing about the timing on getting that playlist was it was probably one of the darkest points in my life. So it was a breath of fresh air. Thus I’m extending a pay it forward thanks to Jack White for writing a cool little ditty about getting know other people and being friendly. Who do you thank for such things?

    Fall is here, hear the yell
    Back to school, ring the bell
    Brand new shoes, walking blues
    Climb the fence, books and pens
    I can tell that we are gonna be friends
    I can tell that we are gonna be friends

    Walk with me, Suzy Lee
    Through the park and by the tree
    We will rest upon the ground
    And look at all the bugs we found
    Safely walk to school without a sound
    Safely walk to school without a sound

    Here we are, no one else
    We walked to school all by ourselves
    Theres dirt on our uniforms
    From chasing all the ants and worms
    We clean up and now its time to learn
    We clean up and now its time to learn

    Numbers, letters, learn to spell
    Nouns and books and show and tell
    Playtime we will throw the ball
    Back to class, through the hall
    Teacher marks our height against the wall
    Teacher marks our height against the wall

    And we don’t notice any time pass
    We don’t notice anything
    We sit side by side in every class
    Teacher thinks that I sound funny
    But she likes the way you sing

    Tonight I’ll dream while I`m in bed
    When silly thoughts go through my head
    About the bugs and alphabet
    And when I wake tomorrow Ill bet
    That you and I will walk together again
    I can tell that we are gonna be friends
    Yes, I can tell that we are gonna be friends

    Remind you of anyone you know?

    “Welcome. Thank you for stopping by in order to watch the official lyric video for Happy When I’m With You, the song that appears in the movie Lucky starring Colin Hanks.”

    Doesn’t matter the time or the place
    Only know there’s a smile taking over my face
    Always seems to be here when you’re there
    Just feel it inside and it’s in the air

    I’m happy when I’m with you
    I’m hap-a hap-a hap-a happy when I‘m with you
 Doesn’t really matter what we do
    I’m hap-a hap-a hap-a happy when I‘m with
 Happy when I’m with you

    Jumping over the sun dancing under the rain
    Acting seriously or completely insane
    Ain’t no place on earth that I’d rather be
    Then with me next to you and you next me

    Chorus:

    When I’m with you there’s sunshine
    In my heart the whole time
    Everybody around us is catching the feelings
    We’re feeling
