Some folks are walkin' round prayin' for rain |
|
Others like the weather fair |
|
Some are standin' waitin' for a summer breeze |
|
I tell you that I just don't care |
|
'Cause I'm up in the canyon |
|
I'm up on a hill |
|
I'm up in the canyon |
|
I'm gettin' my fill |
|
Some folks are sayin' that the big one's comin' |
|
To me it's just a bucket of talk |
|
Stayin' where I am and I don't give a damn |
|
'Cause I'm sittin' on a solid rock |
|
Yeah I'm up in the canyon |
|
I'm up on a hill |
|
I'm up in the canyon |
|
Gettin' my fill |
|
And could you keep me far above where they got the factories |
|
And could you keep me far above where they keep the freeways |
|
And could you keep me far above where they got the autos |
|
And keep me so far above where they steal the hubcaps |
|
And keep me so far above, far above, far above |
|
All of those brown skies |
|
I'm not really curious who my neighbors are |
|
We'll never be the best of friends |
|
Once or twice a year if it's a special day |
|
I might send them my polite amends |
|
But I'm up in the canyon |
|
I'm up on a hill |
|
I'm up in the canyon |
|
I'm gettin' my fill |
|
And could you keep me far above where they got the factories |
|
And keep me so far above where they got the freeways |
|
And keep me so far above where they wear the gasmasks |
|
And keep me so far above whee they steal the hubcaps |
|
And keep me so far above, far above, far above |
|
All of those brown skies |
