Six String World

Well I'm sittin in my truck and I'm late for work again
I can already hear the gruff I'll get from my bossman
Still groggy from the weekend and a good time gone too soon
Seems more and more each day my bad lucks been in full bloom
Although, there's a place I know
Where dreams don't die and only good seeds grow

In my six string world
Got some buddies and a good lookin' girl
Gotta porch with a hell of a view
Where we sit and play them country tunes
In my six string world
I can sing like Hank and Merle
Yeah I'm one of them troubadours
Til reality knocks at my door
And then
I close my eyes again
Because I don't want my six string world to end

When that clock hits five, time to split and head for home
Traffic jam backed up a mile, so I turn on the radio
There's doom and gloom and sadness as always on the news
Can't even find a down home dial, to try and ease my blues
And when I, struggle to get by
I find that happy place inside my mind

In my six string world
Got some buddies and a good lookin' girl
Gotta porch with a hell of a view
Where we sit and play them country tunes
In my six string world
I can sing like Steve Earle
Yeah I'm one of them troubadours
Til reality knocks at my door
And then
I close my eyes again
Because I don't want my six string world to end

In my six string world
The bills are always paid
And the whiskey never runs dry
And my wife never has a headache
In my six string world
Pop country's dead and gone
And the tractor never breaks down

In my six string world
Got some buddies and a good lookin' girl
Gotta porch with a hell of a view
Where we sit and play them country tunes
In my six string world
I can sing like Garth and George
Yeah I'm one of them troubadours
Til reality knocks at my door
And then
I close my eyes again
Because I don't want my six string world to end
And then
I close my eyes again
My six string world ain't never gonna end
