World Weary Lyrics

As recorded at Las Vegas in June, 1955

When I'm feeling weary and blue, I'm only too
Glad to be left alone
Dreaming of a place in the sun when day is done
Far from a telephone
Hardly ever see the sky
Buildings seem to grow so high
Give me somewhere peaceful and grand
Where all the land
Slumbers in monotone

I'm world weary, world weary, living in a great big town
I find it so dreary, so dreary
Everything looks grey or brown
I want an ocean blue
Great big trees
Bird's eye view of the Pyrenees
I wanna watch the moon rise up
See the great red sun go down
Watching clouds go by through a windy sky fascinates me
But if I do it in the street every cop I meet simply hates me
Because I'm world weary, world weary
Tired of all these jumping jacks
I wanna get right back to nature and relax

I'm world weary, world weary, living in a great big town
I find it so dreary, so dreary
Everything looks grey or brown
I want a horse and plow, chickens too
Just one cow with a wistful moo
A country where the verb "to work"
Becomes a most improper noun
I can hardly wait till I see the great open spaces
My loving friends will not be there I'm so sick of their damned fool faces
Because I'm world weary, world weary
I could kiss the railroad tracks
I wanna get right back to nature
Assume a horizontal stature
I wanna get right back to nature and relax
