lyrics
think I’ll move out west to the coast
no place too sunny, just remote
find me a little labor down at the mill
won’t have much money, but I’ll have the still
think I’ll move down south to the sand
lay down by the water and get me a tan
catch my dinner down at the docks
won’t have much but I won’t punch a clock
but these are just lies
meant to deceive
we make up these stories we never believe
think I’ll move on out overseas
won’t tell nobody, I’ll just up and leave
find me a little place in the south of spain
I’ll laugh with the locals and dance in the rain
and oh how we try ever so hard to smile
we push back this poison to sleep for a while
and oh lord I’m tired
no place too sunny, just remote
find me a little labor down at the mill
won’t have much money, but I’ll have the still
think I’ll move down south to the sand
lay down by the water and get me a tan
catch my dinner down at the docks
won’t have much but I won’t punch a clock
but these are just lies
meant to deceive
we make up these stories we never believe
think I’ll move on out overseas
won’t tell nobody, I’ll just up and leave
find me a little place in the south of spain
I’ll laugh with the locals and dance in the rain
and oh how we try ever so hard to smile
we push back this poison to sleep for a while
and oh lord I’m tired
