Well I was born on a dusty road
With the wind on my back
And the sun on my shoulder
But now I live in a dirty old town
And it's draggin' me down

I wanna be where the corn is high
And the air that I breathe
Makes me know I'm alive
I'm going back when the time is right
In a week or two

Yes I will - that's a deal!
But the twilight birds
Are calling me tonight

I got a job in the factory
It don't pay much and it's boring me
I should have been a country boy
And I will some day

Oh yes I will - that's a deal!
But the twilight birds
Are calling me tonight
