At the cafe' down on the corner With a lost look on his face There ain't no fields to plow No reason to now He's just a little out of place
They say crime don't pay But neither does farmin' these days And the coffee is cold And he's fifty years old And he's got to learn to live some other way
At the cafe' down on the corner With a lost look on his face There ain't no fields to plow No reason to now He's just a little out of place
And the meek shall inherit the earth And the bank shall repossess it This job don't pay half what it's worth But it's a thankful man that gets it
At the cafe' down on the corner With a lost look on his face There ain't no fields to plow No reason to now He's just a little out of place
All these soldiers without wars And hometown boys without a home Farmers without fields Dealers without deals And they sit here drinking coffee all alone
At the cafe' down on the corner With a lost look on his face There ain't no fields to plow No reason to now He's just a little out of place
