Come and Get Me, George Jetson
About four years ago I got the delight of sitting in the living room of Julie and Rob Higginbotham listening to this breezy song as they performed it live.
[This recording](http://www.robhigginbotham.com/web%20files/mp3s/Come%20and%20Get%20Me,%20George%20Jetson.mp3) is available for download; Julie and Rob give you permission to get it free, but I don’t. The artist is worthy of his wage, so go [here](http://www.robhigginbotham.com/music%20list.htm) to pay $1 with paypal.
I love this song. It’s like driving down the road with the windows open.
From [Julie](http://www.julianalovespy.com/):
“Here are the lyrics to the song about an optimist living in a world of pessimists. I had a real dream one night about a hotel in the stars, and it looked like a really nice place to go.”
>Come And Get Me, George Jetson
>Yesterday was ok
>But yesterday went away
>Now they say everyday
>Things will fall apart at the seams
>Everyone says the sky is falling
>But I don’t know if it’s true
>So can you come and get me, George Jetson
>In your funny spaceship car
>And drop me off at the hotel in the stars
>Where I can run around in circles
>In my iridescent dress
>Until I dance and spin my way back to
>Happiness
>Well, if I could see what they see
>Well then maybe I would believe
>But to me, can’t you see
>It’s just not as bad as it seems
>I know they tell me that the sky is falling
>But I don’t think that it’s true
>So can you come and get me…..
>Cause I don’t believe the stars are
>Just hanging by a thread
>They just need some polish, that’s all
>So can you come and get me….
>Cause I don’t believe that we are here
>Just hanging by a thread
>We just need some polish, that’s all
