Just Waitin'

The old maid’s waitin' for leap year to come
The crooner’s just waitin' to sing
The old cow’s standing by the Bull Durham sign
Just waitin' for the grass to turn green
The barfly’s waitin' for an easy mark
An' the hitchhiker’s waitin' for a ride
The life-termer's waitin' for a prison break
The beachcomber’s waitin' for a tide
Farmer’s daughter’s waitin' for the salesman
To take her into town
The city slicker’s waitin' for the country boy
To lay all his money down
You know everything comes to a standstill
Ain’t nothin' seems to make a turn
Worm must be waitin' for the early bird
I guess the early bird’s waitin' on a worm
Nobody wants to do nothin'
Just waitin' to get a finger in the pie
Waitin' for a call from a big quiz show
Or waitin' on some rich uncle to die
Katy, she’s waitin' at the garden gate
The moonshiner’s waitin' at the still
The gambler’s still waitin' for that ace in the hole
And Jack is still waitin' on Jill
Everybody’s waitin' for somethin'
Nothin' seems to turn out right
'Cause the night shift’s waitin' for mornin'
And the burglars are just waitin' on the night
The congregation is waitin' for the preacher
The preacher is just waitin' for the groom
And the groom’s just waitin' for the June bride
And the bride’s just waitin' for June
Sunflowers waitin' for the sunshine
Violets just waitin' for the dew
Bees just waitin' for honey
And, honey, I’m just waitin' for you
