The Grass Is Always Greener The Okee Dokee Brothers

[Verse 1]
I wish I lived in the country
So I could run around
Pickin' chicken dinner
Diggin' taters from the ground
I wish I lived in the country Life would be so keen
But I'm stuck here in the city
Where the grass is not as green
I wish that it was summer
When this chilly wind don't blow
I almost can't remember a time
When there weren't 10 feet of snow
I wish that it was summer
I'd run a country mile
But the grass is always greener
If you ain't seen it for a while

[Chorus]
I go from here to there
My pockets and my mind ain't got no sense
I never get nowhere
And I always think I'm on the wrong side of the fence

[Verse 2]
I wish I could play the guitar
That'd be a beautiful thing Imagine all the songs I'd sing If I had just one more string
I wish I could play that guitar
But this banjo's hard to lose
Cuz the bluegrass is greener
When you've got the blues
I wish I had me a house
Start puttin' down some roots
A place to hang my hat
A place to wipe my boots
I wish I had me a home
Instead of livin' on the road
But the grass is always greener
When it isn't yours to mow
