Fence Post Blues |
Sitting down on a country fence post |
Sitting down watchin’trucks roll by Sitting down under the light of day now |
You know that I won’t tell you no lies |
I’ve been here for an hour or so And nothing much is going down |
I don’t care much anyway |
Because you know I’ve been around |
Here on the edge of the green fields growing |
And the sunlight warming all around |
And the blowing of the early mist in the morning |
You know that I don’t hear a sound |
Till once in a while, when a truck rolls by, |
Carrying a overload |
I don’t wanna go nowhere right now |
I feel like my future sold |
Stand on the good land children |
You know that it won’t do you in I must have been here one time before |
But I wonder where the hell I’ve been |
Early in the morning when the sun comes up And I’m walkin’all around the field |
Thinkin’to myself about the city life scenes |
And man you know they ain’t for real |
All you got to do is stick your foot in your mouth |
And tell it where you want to go End up talkin’to yourself some time |
Alone along a country road |
Stand on the good land children |
I feel like I’m bound to stay |
And do the same this morning |
Like I went and did yesterday |
Stand on the good land children |
You know that it won’t do you in I must have been here one time before |
But I wonder where the hell I’ve been |
