Everybody’s Looking for the Same Thing

[Verse 1]
Outside a country store there's a board on the wall
That's filled with cards of every size
And what the folks are looking for is written there to see
Reading it, it comes as no surprise

[Chorus]
That everybody's looking for the same thing
The same thing, it's plain to see
It's an old Chevy, a bass player
A country house on three acres
Three bedrooms, absolutely free

[Verse 2]
Now there's someone going to Boston with a guitar and a dog
And a lady with a goat to give away
There's ten free kittens, a square dance on Sunday
And Cindy, please gеt in touch with Ray

[Verse 3]
Know your future, it's in the stars, fifteen dollars or fix my car
You can call mornings or evеnings until nine
Do you want to lose weight, meditate? Herbal remedies you can take
And massages given at your house or mine

[Chorus]
That everybody's looking for the same thing
The same thing, it's plain to see
(And what is it?)
It's an old Chevy, a bass player
A country house on three acres
Three bedrooms, absolutely free

[Verse 4]
So if you're needing something and you don't know where to start
Just make yourself a card that says it all
Use the words that say it best, include a number and address
And pin it up with the others on the wall

[Chorus]
'Cause everybody's looking for the same thing
The same thing, it's plain to see
It's an old Chevy, a bass player
A country house on three acres
Three bedrooms, absolutely free
