But my heart says, a˘ć©«Reach for the starsa˘ć?
|
And my heart I cannot deny
|
Though its my hard luck
|
That I'm stuck
|
On the farthest one in the sky
|
|
So my eyes are destined to wander
|
And my brain no more to relax
|
For there's nothing farther out yonder
|
Than the other side of the tracks
|
|
On the other side of the tracks
|
It's a long and difficult climb
|
But the air up there on the bill of faire
|
Is a choice of lemon and lime
|
|
And the muscles keeping your nose up
|
Are the only muscles you tax
|
Oh I envy someone who grows up
|
On the other side of the tracks
|
|
So I'm off and running
|
Over the rail
|
I'm going gunning
|
After the quail
|
Off and running
|
Send me the mail
|
|
To the great big world
|
On the other side
|
To the great big world
|
On the farther side
|
To the great big world
|
On the other side of the tracks
|
|
One more time!
|
|
To the great big world
|
On the other side
|
The great big world
|
On the farther side
|
The great big world
|
On the other side of the tracks
|

On The Other Side Of The Tracks
