The Straight Life - Glen Campbell (格伦·坎贝尔)

Sometimes I imagine myself as a drifter

A seeker of fortune connoisseur of great wines

Dashing through meadows of yellow and green

Trying to catch the impossible dream

A leaving the straight life behind

Sometimes my thoughts found me way down in Mexico

A drinking tequila going out of my mind

Having a ball on a couple a bob

A treating the ladies to corn on the cob

A leaving the straight life behind

And suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear

She comes to me softly with crackers and beer

A winking and blinking and blowing my ear

A running away with my mind

It's great to be in love I'm not really thinking of

A leaving the straight life behind

I'm just playing a game in my why mind

Once in a while in my mind I go a bumming

A going nowhere with no worry of time

Running along chasing after a train

Humming a song in the sun and the rain

A leaving the straight life behind

I can just see me on a tropical island

A riding the surf and drinking coconut wine

Having me fun with the girls in the sand

Chasing the sun through an innocent land

A leaving the straight life behind

Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear

She comes to me softly with crackers and beer

A winking and blinking and blowing my ear

A running away with my mind

It's great to be in love I'm not really thinking of

A leaving the straight life behind

I'm just playing a game in my why mind
