Eli - Arlo Guthrie

Gonna sit right here and sing myself a tune

That I wrote one afternoon

After everyone had gone

And I know that this won’t mean a lot to you

You’ve got better things to do

But for me I’ll just go on

Old dog is Iying in the middle of the road

He don’t do nothing 'cause he don’t want to

And I think I’m gonna like that hound

'Cause the more he sits around

The less I want to do too

Gonna sit right here and watch the world roll by

Till we both just up and die

Watching clouds and eating flies

Don’t want to bother no one

Don’t want nothing here to change

A dusty road is all we’ve ever dreamed of

And I think I’m gonna love this life

Maybe someday take a wife

She can join us if she wants to

Ain’t nobody gonna tell what to do

If a car comes we just move

And we both move real smooth like

Old dog is moving must be something in the air

Some bitch is coming up the road now

And I think I’m gonna like that hound

'Cause the more he gets around

The more I want to do too
