Townie

A townie and forever and a townie for today
You were born here now you're done, and you will die here in this place

Well, Nashville don't do drugs, New York's too far away
Chicago's got the blues, right here then I will stay
I'm easily amused, I don't have much to say
There ain't nothin' for tomorrow that ain't happening today

A hippie and forever and a hippie for today
With your Grateful Dead and peace and love, and smoking grass all day

Well, working ain't no fun at all, I'm going my own way
A commune is the place to be, I'll live on one someday
I'll make it on my own, I'm living day to day
There ain't nothin' for tomorrow that ain't happening today

I can't wait anymore!
There's ole' Mr. Sunshine knockin' at my door
A change is gonna come 'round
Can't you hear the sound?

A suit and tie forever and a suit and tie today
And you're working nine-to-five until you fall into your grave

Stock market business crash, a power lunch at three
You always know just where you are and where you're gonna be
Power greed ambition and you always get your way
There ain't nothin' for tomorrow that ain't happening today

I can't wait anymore!
There's ole' Mr. Sunshine knockin' at my door
A change is gonna come 'round
Can't you hear the sound?
