Central Time Lyrics
The Missouri is my right arm,
the Ohio is my left
But I'm livin' on the Mississippi River
where I like life the bestI don't mind the west coast,
and I don't mind the east coast
Oh, baby but I-I-I-I
ain't gonna live on no coastChorus:
I'm just a plaaaain old Midwestern boy
Just gettin' by on Central timeSome people say
that the Mississippi River is
the backbone of the nation
They can say whatever they want,
I won't disagree with that statementI-I-I see people
workin' hard as ever,
just wondering what I-ay-ay
can do to make their lives betterChorus:
I'm just a plain old Midwestern boy
Gettin' by on Central timeBridge:
Well, I won't worry
if the world don't like me,
I won't let 'em waste my time
There ain't nothin'
goin' to change my mind,
I feel fine
Gettin' by on Central timeI won't worry
if the world don't like me,
I won't let 'em waste my time
There ain't nothin'
goin' to change my mind,
I'm feelin' fine
because...The Missouri is my right arm,
the Ohio is my left
But I'm livin' on the Mississippi River
where I like life the bestI don't mind the west coast,
I sure don't mind the east coast
Oh, baby but I-I-I-I
ain't gonna live on no coastChorus:
I'm just a plain old Midwestern boy
Gettin' by on Central time
