Watchin The World Go By

TI been catchin' them freight trains

I been ridin' them railroads

I been sleepin' in a boxcar

Watchin', watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by

I been walkin' them highways

I been hittin' them back roads

I been sleepin' in a haystack

Watchin', watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by

I been shinglin' a rooftop

I been tendin' to a new crop

I been eatin' from a bean pot

I been workin' on a new road

I been workin' on the railroad

But I can't ride on neither

I'm watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by

I been pickin' in a pea patch

I been workin' on a fruit ranch

I been livin' in a pasture

Watchin', watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by

I been pickin' your lettuce

I been pickin' your maters

I been livin' on taters

Watchin', watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by

I been shinglin' a rooftop

I been tendin' to a new crop

I been eatin' from a bean pot

I been workin' on a new road

I been workin' on the railroad

But I can't ride on neither

I'm watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by

Freight train, railroad, boxcar

Highway, back door, haystack

Pea patch, fruit ranch, pasture

New road, railroad, my road

I'm catchin', ridin', sleepin', walkin'

Hittin', pickin', workin', livin'

I'm watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by

Watchin' the world go by
