It's so lonely in these farmlands
Please come with me
To the bright lights downtown

G D
I said, "Hey, pretty girl

Don't you understand

I just want to be your lovin' man"

The sun is down in the corn fields
The evening is dark
And you sing so sad

I got two weeks in back pay
There's gas in my car
And your folks say I must go

Playing guitar on the back porch
I leave in my car
While you sing so sad
