I Guess He'd Rather Be in Colorado

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado

He'd rather spend his time out

Where the sky looks like a pearl after a rain

Once again I see him walkin'

Once again I hear him talking

To the stars he makes

And asking them for bus fareI guess he'd rather be in Colorado

He'd rather play his banjo in the morning

When the moon is scarcely gone

In the dawn the subway's comin'

In the dawn I hear him hummin'

Some old song he wrote of love in Boulder Canyon

I guess he'd rather be in ColoradoI guess he'd rather be in Colorado

I guess he'd rather work out

Where the only thing you earn is what you spend

In the end up in his office

In the end a quiet cough is all he has to show

He lives in New York City

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado
