When everything seems to go wrong
I just sit and sing a song
And every time I wait for the sunshine
It seems the rain's always fallin'
On my window.....But I don't care
Chorus
I'm gonna climb the mountains
And I'm gonna fly high
And do all the things that I couldn't do before
And maybe kiss Mother Earth goodbye
Additional Verses:
With times gettin' harder
And things gettin' bad
I think I'll just go somewhere
Where things aren't so sad
And start a new life again
The only other line that made it
from 1975 to 1996
This life that I'm livin'
Just don't work out right
And when I try to be friendly
People just wanna fight
But I don't care...it's not my affair
People think I'm just a country boy
But really I'm the same
And if they'd just follow my life
They'd know it's no game
But I don't care...it's no longer my affair
Someday when I'm gone
The people may all cry
Then they'll just wonder
And know the reason why
But I don't care...it's no longer my affair
