Safari Song by Greta Van Fleet

Songfacts®:

• Greta Van Fleet had to tone this down from its original incarnation. Bassist Sam Kiszka explained to ABC Radio : "When we formatted 'Safari Song' for the first time, there was a lot more percussion. We kind of, I don't wanna say Dumbed it down, but kinda simplified it in the studio." "When you go in the studio, you go from four musicians to infinite musicians in there, you can layer, like, 30 guitars," he continued. "I think the important part is learning how to do that in discretion." Guitarist Jake Kiszka added that the band is happy with the final track. "It was taking too many liberties and being overly creative," he said.

Meaning of Safari Song by Greta Van Fleet

The song "Safari Song" by Greta Van Fleet is about a man pleading for the love and attention of a woman he desires. In the first verse, he asks her to come to his town and his home as he wants to be with her. He also hopes that she reciprocates his feelings and desires her love. The chorus continues his plea by asking what she will do with all the love in her heart, and encouraging her to give some of it to him.

The second verse describes how she makes him feel and how he wants their love to grow. It also hints at some doubts and fears about the potential of their love, as he worries that she may not come back to him. The guitar solo and the bridge reveal his desperation and the extent to which he wants her love, as he mentions begging for it and giving all he could in the past. The outro ends the song with a repetition of the themes of love and passion.

Overall, the song portrays a yearning and passionate desire for love and affection from someone who is seen as distant and unattainable to the narrator.

Greta Van Fleet

Oh lady, when ya come on down Won't ya come on down? I said to my town

Oh mama when ya come on down Won't ya come on down? I said to my home

Oo lady won't you move my way? Can't ya move my way? I'm getting hazy

Oh mama when you give your lovin' When you give your love You drive me crazy

Ah mama what you gonna do With all that love in your heart? Ah mama what you gonna say About that love in your heart? Oh mama when you walk this way Why don't you give some lovin'? Oo mama what you gonna do With all that lovin' in your heart?

See mama gotta feel your everything Feel your everything I really wanna know

See mama when you shine you're shinin' bright Give you're given right I really want our love to grow

See mama when your heart is in its place See that smilin' face It's all I wanna do

See mama every time that you are near It's when your gonna fear You're never gonna come back home

Do you remember what I said When I got down on my knees? Gotta get your lovin', baby Lovin's all I need Don't make me beg now, baby Don't make me bleed I gave you all a man could give And you still walked out on me

Your heart Your heart Your heart Your heart Lovin' Burnin Fire
