But neither does farmin' these days
He's just a little out of place
He's just a little out of place
They're wishin' for one now
This job don't pay half what it's worth
No reason to now
At the cafe down on the corner
And the bank shall repossess it
And he's got to learn to live some other way
There ain't no fields to plow
But it's a thankful man that gets it
He's wishin' for one now
And hometown boys without a home
All these soldiers without wars
With a lost look on his face
At the cafe down on the corner
He's just a little out of place
Farmers without fields, dealers without deals
And the meek shall inherit the earth
They say crime don't pay
With a lost look on his face
There ain't no fields to plow
He's busin' tables now
There ain't no fields to plow
And they sit here drinking coffee all alone
There ain't no fields to plow
With a lost look on their face
And the coffee is cold and he's fifty years old
At the cafe down on the corner
