Waitin' On The Sky |
I grew up in a military town |
Waitin' on the sky to fall |
Everybody I knew hanqin' around wonderin' |
What they’d do when the Draft Board called |
Lookin' back it musta been a miracle |
How I ever grew up at all |
To sing about livin' in a military town |
Waitin' on the sky to fall |
Waitin' on the sky to fall, boys |
Waitin' on the sky to fall |
Chicken Little wasn’t makin' nothin' but noise |
Waitin' on the sky to fall |
Spent a lonely lifetime rollin' down the line |
Searchin' for the Holy Grail |
Never once crossed my solitary mind |
That any such consecrated quest’d fail |
Came upon an ocean and much to my chagrin |
They told me that ship had sailed |
Walkin' on the water cause I never learned |
To swin searchin' for the Holy Grail |
Searchin' for the Holy Grail, friends |
Searchin' for the Holy Grail |
Been across the oceans and now I’m back again |
Searchin' for the Holy Grail |
Been around enough to know a little bit now |
And I’m sitting on tip of the world |
Wangin' on a guitar while the sun goes down |
And singin a song about a redheaded girl |
Was a time I would have said those days were gone |
But I’m givin' it another whirl |
Didn’t know that I was gonna live this long |
Now I’m sitting' on top of the world |
Sittin' on top of the world, y’all |
Sittin' on top of the world |
Eyes wide open until the Messenger calls |
Sittin' on top of the world |
