Sitting down on a country fence post

Sitting down watchin' trucks roll by

Sitting down under the light of day now

You know that I won't tell you no lies



I've been here for an hour or so

And nothing much is going down

I don't care much anyway

Because you know I've been around



Here on the edge of the green fields growing

And the sunlight warming all around

And the blowing of the early mist in the morning

You know that I don't hear a sound



Till once in a while, when a truck rolls by,

Carrying a overload

I don't wanna go nowhere right now

I feel like my future sold



Stand on the good land children

You know that it won't do you in

I must have been here one time before

But I wonder where the hell I've been



Early in the morning when the sun comes up

And I'm walkin' all around the field

Thinkin' to myself about the city life scenes

And man you know they ain't for real



All you got to do is stick your foot in your mouth

And tell it where you want to go

End up talkin' to yourself some time

Alone along a country road



Stand on the good land children

I feel like I'm bound to stay

And do the same this morning

Like I went and did yesterday



Stand on the good land children

You know that it won't do you in

I must have been here one time before

But I wonder where the hell I've been
