Just Waitin'

The old maid's waitin' for leap year to come The crooner's just waitin' to sing The old cow's standin' by the Bull Durham sign Just awaitin' for the grass to turn green The bar-fly's waitin' for an easy mark An' the hitch-hiker's waitin' for a ride The life-termer's waitin' for a prison break The beachcomber's waitin' for the tide Farmer's daughter's waitin' for the salesman To take her into town The city slicker's waitin' for the country boy To lay all his money down You know everything comes to a standstill Nothin' seems to make a turn Worm must be waitin' for the early bird I guess the early bird's waitin' for the worm Nobody wants to do nothin' Just waitin' to get a finger in the pie Waitin' for a call from a big quiz show Or hopin' and awaitin' for some rich uncle to die Katy, she's waitin' at the garden gate The moonshiner's waitin' at the still An' the gambler's still waitin' for that ace in the hole I guess, Jack's still waitin' for Jill Everybody's waitin' for somethin' Nothin' seems to turn out right Cause the night shift's waitin' for mornin' And the burglar just waitin' for night The congregation's waitin' for the preacher Preacher just waitin' for the groom The groom's just waitin' for the June bride And the bride's just waitin' for June Sunflowers waitin' for the sunshine Violets just waitin' for dew Bees just waitin' for honey And, honey, I'm just waitin' for you
