I'm just standing here

Looking out my window

Wondering if it's ever gonna rain

I'm just standing here

Listening to the wind blow

Beating on my walls and on my brain

And I'm just crying here

Crying for my country

Somewhere we got lost along the way

And I'm not preaching here

But, Lord, ain't it funny?

The whole world's talkin', but no one's saying a thing

I'm just hiding out from all them music people

I'm sure they'd all claim to be my friends

But I'm not lying now, they'd sell me for a nickel

In my future or my pasture, they ain't welcome in

I'm just standing here

Looking out my window

Wondering if it's ever gonna rain

I'm just standing here

Listening to the wind blow

Beating on my walls and on my brain
