JOHN DENVER - I Guess He'd Rather Be in Colorado Lyrics

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado
He'd rather spend his time out
Where the sky looks like a pearl after rain

Once again, I see him walkin'
Once again I hear him talkin'
To the stars he makes and asking them for bus fare

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 subways 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 Colorado

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
