[Verse 1] Six lanes, taillights Red ants marchin into the night They disappear to the left and right again Another supper from a sack A ninetynine cent heart attack I got a poundin head and an achin back And the camels buried in a big straw stack [Chorus] Im 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 Lords blessed Point our rockin chairs towards the west And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows Where the green grass grows [Verse 2] Well Im 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 agettin dark Theres concrete growin in the city park I dont know who my neighbors are And theres bars on the corners and bars on my heart [Chorus] Im 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 Lords blessed Point our rockin chairs towards the west And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows Where the green grass grows [Chorus] Im gonna live where the green grass grows Watchin my corn pop up in rows Every night be tucked in close to you Raise our kids where the good Lords blessed Point our rockin chairs towards the west And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows Where the green grass grows
