[00:00:34] Storybook -Roger Creager

[00:00:44] Roger Creager

[00:00:47] Sometimes I sit in my backyard, I kick back and drink iced tea

[00:00:52] I stare all the way to the ocean and dream of how it would be

[00:00:58] If I were a ship captain somewhere or an old fashioned sailor at sea

[00:01:03] Or a stowed away pirate just down below hiding and praying the law don't find me

[00:01:09] Maybe I'd sail from Nantucket chasing the great white whale

[00:01:15] Oh without a sound, I'd run him aground then I'd bring old Ahab the tail

[00:01:21] Yeah I'd bring old Ahab his tail

[00:01:25] Chorus:

[00:01:25] But I'm not a (sailor, outlaw, runaway),

[00:01:27] I'm just a man stuck here in the promise land

[00:01:32] Living hard and living free

[00:01:37] I'm a dreamer that's what I got, Oh but here goes one last shot

[00:01:42] I hope someday they're dreaming about me

[00:02:00] Sometimes I dream I'm a cowboy around 1949

[00:02:05] Id cross the border on horseback with a real close buddy of mine

[00:02:11] Id know we'd run from trouble but I'm sure its what we'd find

[00:02:17] When you're out of the frying pan into the fire, who cares what you leave behind

[00:02:23] I know i'd fall in love down there and I'd probably end up in jail

[00:02:28] When you fall in love with a rich man's daughter, 'who's gonna go your bail

[00:02:34] Ohhh i hate them Mexican jails---

[00:02:38] Chorus

[00:02:39] I'd love to go rafting the waters. riding the mighty Mississippi

[00:03:28] I'd float around from town to town causing trouble then I'd give'em the slip

[00:03:36] That water could take me back to the days of old Huck Finn

[00:03:42] I'd sleep all day and smoke all night and play tricks on old Jim

[00:07:06] Yeah I'd think I'd like old Jim
