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 lie

I’ve been here about 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

‘Til once in a while when a truck rolls by
Carrying an overload
I don’t wanna go nowhere right now
I feel like my future’s 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 along the field
Thinkin’ to myself those city life scenes
And man you know they ain’t for real
All you gotta do is stick your foot in your mouth
And tell it where you want to go
End up talkin’ to yourself sometime
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
