(Winchester)
|
Life is just too short for some folks, for other folks it just drags on.
|
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey, others figure tea's too strong.
|
Well, I'm the type of guy who wants to stand in the middle,
|
I don't like all this bouncing back and forth.
|
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie and my head in the cool blue north.
|
|
In a small suburban garden, not a single neighbor knows our name.
|
I know the woman wishes we would move where the houses aren't all the same.
|
Say Johnny, I would like to go where the grass is greener, I couldn't really say where it may be.
|
But some place high on a mountain top, down by the deep blue sea.
|
And there, we'll do just as we please. It ain't nothing but a breeze.
|
|
One day I'll be old gray Grandpa, all the pretty girls will call me "Sir."
|
Now when they're asking me how things are, soon they'll ask me how things were.
|
Well, I don't mind being an old gray Grandpa as long as you'll be my gray Grandma.
|
But I think we should move with our tea and cookies to the shade of the old pawpaw.
|
|
There we'll do just as we please, It ain't nothing but a cool breeze.
