It`s not every day I see you waiting here on the front porch
of the store telling tales
I`ve come a hundred miles from the everglades
And if you`ve got some time tell me of your day
Oh sit beneath the stars
Oh the days are hot and long
I think time has taken everything from me
And my hands no longer work anymore
There`s a child in the mud laughing now
She doesn`t know her life is running away
Oh sit beneath the stars
Oh the days are hot and long
It`s not every day I see you waiting here on the front porch
of the store telling tales
I`ve come a hundred miles from the everglades
And if you`ve got some time tell me of your day
Oh sit beneath the stars
Oh the days are hot and long
Only if you`ve got some time
Only if you`ve got some time
Only if you`ve got some time
