|
I was born into a simple life |
|
Didn't take much to satisfy me |
|
Then there came a time in autumn |
|
I had to leave |
|
Tried to get a job in |
|
AlabamaBut the man said he didn't need no one today |
|
I made my way down to |
|
MemphisAnd stayed a few days |
|
Got a letter from my |
|
MommaShe said "Boy won't you try to come homeYour Daddy said he'd give you all the landFor your own, come on home" |
|
But there comes a time in everybody's life |
|
When you have to search for peace of mind |
|
I might go to |
|
Aspen, Colorado |
|
And spend some time |
|
I hear it's fine |
|
When the leaves of autumn start to turnin' |
|
And one falls softly to the ground |
|
I have thoughts of other places |
|
Some new town to be found |
