Saw him sittin' on a sidewalk in Fresno
Braided hair and a tie-dyed t - shirt on
Talkin' to himself about Vietnam
About the tour he did and the deal he got
He said "This world ain't the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd be."
"I'd be rollin' on a river with Creedence
Stealin' kisses from Peggy Sue
I'd be knee - deep in sand on a Panama beach
In the spring of '72
I'd be wastin' away on the dock of the bay.
Watchin' the tide roll in
He said what I wouldn't give just to live those songs again."
Saw him workin' the counter at Walgreen's
With a new haircut and a Bachelor's Degree
Talkin' to himself about his raw deal
Cussin' Uncle Sam and the G.I. Bill
He said, "The world ain't the same if you ask me.
If I could be somewhere else, I'd tell you where I'd be."
