Where the Green Grass Grows

Six lanes, tail lights
Red ants marching into the night
They disappear to the left and right again

Another supper from a sack
A 99-cent heart attack
I've got a pounding head and an achin' back
And the camels buried in the big straw stack

I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
Watch my corn pop up in rows
Every night be tucked in close to you

Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
Point our rockin' chairs towards the West
And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows
Where the green grass grows

Well, I'm from a map dot
A stop sign on a black top
I caught the first bus I could hop from there

But all of this glitter is getting dark
There's concrete growin' in the city park
I don't know who my neighbors are
There's bars on the corners and bars on my heart

I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
Watch my corn pop up in rows
Every night be tucked in close to you

Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
Point our rocking chairs towards the west
Plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows
Where the green grass grows

I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
Watch my corn pop up in rows
Every night be tucked in close to you

Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
Point our rocking chairs towards the west
And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows

Whoa-oh, where the green grass grows
