Let me die out in the boons It took me 13 years to bloom They broke up, but he's alright We'll be in town 'til late tonight I'm Dyin' in the boons
And how I hate a hungry crowd Worst of 'em all talk the loudest I guess I'll die out here With a hammer and a beer Just dyin' in the boons
So leave me out of that talk downtown I have found everything I'll ever need Real deep In the boons
I met a girl deep in the city She said she don't mind sittin' with me I let my troubles float away I had myself a simple day Just dyin' in the boons And how I miss the quick-stop line They say, "Hello" every time No concern for politics
Come on home, I'll check for ticks Love me gently in the boons And why does everyone I know Have somewhere else to go? Won't you look up from your hands? Let's be still while we still can Stay a while out in the boons
So leave me out of that talk downtown I have found everything I'll ever need Real deep In the boons
Let me die out in the boons It took me 13 years to bloom I'm beat up, but I'm alright I'll be in town 'til late tonight Just dyin' in the boons
