By townes van zandt
Mister gator hes a-glidin down the bayou
Mister buzzard hes a-slidin through the air
Mister turtle be a-hittin the highway
I aint goin nowhere
I aint leavin you love, babe
I aint leavin you love, babe
Not for heaven above, babe
I aint leavin you love, babe
The poor man got him an airplane
Tryin to cruise across the traffic jam
The rich man got him a chevrolet
Im stayin right where I am
Now hannibal he climbed the mountains
Cleopatra danced down the nile
Lucky lindy made it all the way to gay paris
Im stayin right here awhile
