Six lanes

Taillights

Red ants marchin' into the night

The disappear to the left and right again

Another supper from a sack

A ninety-nine cent heart attack

I got a poundin' head and an achin' back

And the camel's buried in a big straw stack

(Chorus)

I'm 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 Lord's best

Point our rocking chairs toward the west

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 black top

I caught the first bus I could hop from there

But all this glitter is gettin' dark

There's concrete growin' in the city park

I don't know who my neighbors are

But there's bars on the corners and bars on my heart

(Repeat Chorus twice)
