Counting Feedcaps Lyrics by Greg Brown

The Iowa Waltz

0

Don't wanna live in the city
City is way too full
I just wanna be where I can sleep
With both of my eyes closed

Don't wanna live in the country
I can't afford no farm
So I'm in this little town, and I look around
And there ain't that much to do

[Chorus:]
Let's go down to the cafe and count feedcaps
And count feedcaps, in a row
Red and blue and green over the coffee cups
Stirrin' easy, fadin' slow

JoAnn, you know how much I love you
That's why I brought you here
Where the rent is cheap and the fishin's good
When it don't rain too much

What is this look in your eyes, dear?
Are you tired of me?
You don't wanna read; nothin's on TV
Don't look at your suitcase like that

[Chorus]
