Watchin' The World Walk By
©2009 Ronnie Lee Hurst/Butch Price

I got tired of the rat race, longed for a slow pace
Now I'm sittin' here in this park
Ain't got a worry, I ain't in a hurry
Don't plan on leavin' till after it's dark
Climbin' that ladder really don't matter
Gonna learn to live before I die
Sayin' so long hustle, goodbye bustle
I'm watchin' the world walk by

Hey, it's a beautiful day
Got the sun in a big blue sky
I'm sittin' alone, singin' my song
Watchin' the world walk by
Hey, it's a beautiful day
Got the sun in a big blue sky
I'm sittin' alone, singin' my song
Watchin' the world walk by

Now, I'm figuring out what this life's all about
As I'm takin' it day by day
One thing I've found, by slowin' it down
The seconds last longer as they slip away
Birds in the trees, singin' to me
And I think I finally figured out why
I'm soakin' it in, wearin' a grin
Watchin' the world walk by

Hey, it's a beautiful day
Got the sun in a big blue sky
I'm sittin' alone, singin' my song
Watchin' the world walk by
Hey, it's a beautiful day
Got the sun in a big blue sky
I'm sittin' alone, singin' my song
Watchin' the world walk by


Hey, it was a beautiful day
Now the sun's droppin' from the sky
I'm sittin' alone, singin' my song
Watchin' the world walk by
My, what a beautiful night
Got the stars waltzin' in the sky
I'm sittin' alone, singin' my song
Watchin' the world walk by
Watchin' the word walk by
I'm watchin' the world walk by
