I’d rather be fishin’ in a scum pond in Kansas Than put on a suit and dance in Paris Where the lights shine bright, but they don’t feel like home I’ll take the muddy waters where I roam I’d rather cast my line where the river runs slow Watch the sun set low, feel the cool breeze blow Don’t need no fancy stage or a front row seat Just me and the water, where I find my peace (Chorus) So I’ll take my boots and that old fishing pole Let the world spin by, that’s all I need to know You can keep your culture, your high-class scenes I’ll be out here livin’ my simple dreams Give me the ripples, the mud, and the weeds And the sound of silence, that’s all I need I’ll trade the ballet for a fish on the line And be happy with the peace I find I’d rather be fishin’ than dress up in style In the quiet of nature, I’ll sit for a while You can keep your art, your grand operas too But there’s somethin’ ‘bout Kansas that feels brand new (Chorus) So I’ll take my boots and that old fishing pole Let the world spin by, that’s all I need to know You can keep your culture, your high-class scenes I’ll be out here livin’ my simple dreams (Outro) In a scum pond in Kansas, where the world feels right No need for Paris when I’ve got this light
