Dreamin' In The Country

Sittin' here, thinkin' 'bout the fix I'm in

Ain't no time to write a line, is it ever gonna end?

Spent my whole mornin' at the corner store

Just a-smokin' and a-jokin' with the kid next door

Gettin' aggravated 'cause my mind's gone dead

Think I'll have a little drink and then just jump right

into bed

Ridin' down the street in a big ol' Cadillac

Seems to me that yesterday is at least a mile back

Havin' such a good time, havin' so much fun

Just a-dancin' and a-drinkin', probably never get done

Then all at once I hear a ringin' in my ears

Guess it must've been a dream 'cause I'm still right

here

Come one day, I'll be leavin' this old country town

Come one day, I'll be headin' for the city

Havin' fun and drinkin' some, everything's gonna work

out fine

One day I'll come back again, if I get the time

Eatin' maple candy underneath the maple tree

Just a-sittin' in the shade thinkin' what I wanna be

Maybe some day I'll be a movie star

Kissin' pretty girls and drivin' fancy cars

Then everybody's gonna be so proud of me

Say they knew it all along, just you wait and see

Sittin' here, thinkin' 'bout the fix I'm in

Ain't no time to write a line, is it ever gonna end?

Spent my whole mornin' at the corner store

Just a-smokin' and a-jokin' with the kid next door

Gettin' aggravated 'cause my mind's gone dead

Think I'll have a little drink and then just jump right

into bed
