Lyrics – Latitude Longitude

By Daniel Joseph Duey
Latitude and Longitude

Verse 1
Latitude, longitude measured in degrees. Lines running north and
south, west and east. Drawn on a map they’re not the lines that
you’ll find in the street, cause these lines are imaginary. Two lines
help you find your destination. Show my driver where to drive and
his location. Next time your on vacation you’ll know where you’re
at because you know this information. Now check this out… to
find where you need to be, son. Take the lines learn how to read
them. Your brain’s hungry for knowledge time feed ‘em. Latitude
and longitude I’ll teach ‘em.

Chorus
Where you at, Mr. Duey where you at, where you at?
Use latitude and longitude to find me on your map.

Verse 2
Mr. Duey, I’m confused what’s latitude? I know it’s lines across
the map, but what do they do? Well, these lines across the map
move up and down and they measure in degrees, measure north
and south. Longitude, the lines are vertical move right to left and
longitude measures degrees from east to west and what’s left?
Equator, Prime Meridian check, equator and Prime Meridian cross
the map in half and to find where you need to be, son, take the
lines learn how to read them. Your brain’s hungry for knowledge
time feed ‘em latitude and longitude I’ll teach ‘em

Chorus
Where you at, Mr. Duey where you at, where you at?
Use latitude and longitude to find me on your map.

Verse 3
Cause you never know I might be out doing 6, 8, 40 shows a
week, and you need to be able to pin point coordinates to find me.
Check the website and get your mind right, pin
point coordinates for the places I perform, and get your rhymes
tight you need to memorize every one of the lines in every one of
my songs ‘cause when I hit the stage, you don’t want to be the
only one not following along.

Chorus
Where you at, Mr. Duey where you at, where you at?
Use latitude and longitude to find me on your map.
