The Panhandlers
Caprockin’
[Verse 1]
They say there's nothing to do here but stare up at the sky
Listen to the wind and pray the day goes by
Without a heat wave from the desert, a tornado from the north
A dust storm that only ever blows back and forth
They say you got to be a farming man or a roughneck on the rig They say either way it’s your own grave to dig
Well I have found a way to live without paying such a price
And I have made a home in this country paradise
[Chorus]
Gonna do a little caprockin'
A little slow talkin'
Walk of fame walkin’ with the one I love
Gonna do a little county fairin'
Be a cattle baron
'Til I see them stars burnin' up above
Gonna do a little caprockin'
[Verse 2]
I got 40 pristine acres, my own slice of life
An angel from Plainview that's bound to be my wife
Front row seat to sunset, a truck that just won't quit
A cask in the back that's about to be moonlit
[Chorus]
Gonna do a little caprockin’
A little slow talkin’
Walk of fame walkin' with the one I love
Gonna do a little county fairin’
Be a cattle baron
'Til I see them stars burnin' up above
Gonna do a little caprockin'
[Verse 3]
Sister had her fill and took her family east of Dallas
Bought a home in a city that looks like a crystal palace
She swears I’d love the neighborhood, I should consider moving there
Hate to break it to you sis, but I ain't going anywhere
[Chorus]
Gonna do a little caprockin'
A little slow talkin'
Walk of fame walkin' with the one I love
Gonna do a little county fairin'
Be a cattle baron
'Til I see them stars burnin' up above
Gonna do a little caprockin'
[Chorus]
A little slow talkin'
Walk of fame walkin' with the one I love
Gonna do a little county fairin'
Be a cattle baron
'Til I see them stars burnin' up above
Gonna do a little caprockin'
Gonna do a little caprockin'
[Outro]
They say there's nothing to do here but stare up at the sky
Listen to the wind and pray the day goes by
