Six lanes   Tail lights    Red ants marchin' into the night    They disappear to the left and right again    Another supper   From a sack    A 99 cent heart attack    I got a poundin' head and an achin' back    And the camels buried in a 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 blacktop    I caught the first bus that I could hop from there    But all o' this glitter is gettin' dark    There's concrete glowin' in the city park    I don't know who my neighbors are    And there's bars on the corner and bars on the 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 rockin' chairs towards the west   And 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 rockin' chairs towards the west   And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows    Whoa-oh, where the green grass grows
