A PLACE IN THE SHADE (Baker Knight) В« В© '67 Unichappell Music В» Now some folks play the whole day long They think they got it made But they won't get a thrill the way that I live When I find me a place in the shade A poor man word is never learned still I wouldn't trade All the world and its gold all the treasures untold I want a little place in the shade Too late to bed and early to rise Makes a man weary and cuts him down the size They come and they go and their worlds fall apart But I'm gonna cling to the dreams in my heart Cause someday I know the years gonna come When all my debts are paid When my work is all done I'll smile at the sun And find me a place in the shade When the work is all done I'll smile at the sun And find me a place in the shade
