Cafe On The Corner Lyrics

At the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on his face
There ain't no fields to plow
No reason to now
He's just a little out of placeThey say crime don't pay
But neither does farmin' these days
And the coffee is cold and he's fifty years old
And he's got to learn to live some other wayAt the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on his face
There ain't no fields to plow
He's busin' tables now
He's just a little out of placeAnd the meek shall inherit the earth
And the bank shall repossess it
This job don't pay half what it's worth
But it's a thankful man that gets itAt the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on his face
There ain't no fields to plow
He's wishin' for one now

He's just a little out of placeAll these soldiers without wars
And hometown boys without a home
Farmers without fields, dealers without deals
And they sit here drinking coffee all aloneAt the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on their face
There ain't no fields to plow
They're wishin' for one now
They're just a little out of place
