Laughing River |
| I’m goin away |
| 'cause I gotta busted heart |
| I’m leavin' today |
| If my Travel |
| All will start |
| And I reckon where I’m headed |
| I might need me different clothes- |
| Way up in Michigan |
| Where the Laughing River flows |
| Twenty years in the minor leagues- |
| Ain’t no place I didn’t go |
| Well I gotta few hits |
| But I never made the show |
| And I could hang on for a few years |
| Doin what I’ve done before |
| I wanna hear the Laughing River |
| Flowin' right outside my door |
| My cousin Ray |
| Said he’s got a job for me |
| Where the houses are cheap |
| And he knows this nice lady |
| He said she even saw me play once |
| Said she smiled at my name |
| Well upon the Laughing River |
| Could be a whole new game |
| So goodbye to the bus |
| Good bye to payin' dues |
| Goodbye to the cheers |
| And goodbye to the booze |
| Well I’m trading in this old bat |
| For a fishing pole |
| I’m gonna let the Laughing River |
| Flow right into my soul |
