"I Guess He'd Rather Be in Colorado" Sangtekst

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado
He'd rather spend his time out
Where the sky looks like a pearl after the rain.
Once again I see him walking, once again I hear him talking
To the stars he makes and asking them the busfare.

I 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 coming, in the dawn I hear him humming
Some old song he wrote of love in Boulder Canyon

I 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
