All I Can Do Is Write About It

Well this life that I live took me everywhere There ain't no place I ain't never gone Well it's kind of like the sayin That you heard so many times Well there just ain't no place like home Did you ever see a she-gator protect her youngin' Or fish in a river swimmin' free Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennessee And Lord I can't make any changes All I can do is write 'em in a song 'Cause if I can seen the concrete a slowly creepin' Lord take me and mine before that comes Like to see a mountain stream a flowin' Do ya like to see a youngin' with his dog Did ya ever stop and think about Well the air your breathin' Well ya better listen to my song And Lord I can't make any changes All I can do is write 'em in a song 'Cause when I can see the concrete a slowly creepin' Lord take me and mine before that comes I'm not tryin' to put down no big city But the things they write about us is just a bore Well you can take a boy out of ole' Dixieland, Lord But you'll never take ole' Dixie from a boy And Lord I can't make any changes All I can do is write 'em in a song 'Cause when I can see the concrete a slowly creepin' Lord take me and mine before that comes If I can see the concrete a slowly creepin' Lord take me and mine before that comes
