Sun setting in a red sky The world is winding down I'm watching the clouds roll by On the sleepy side of town ------- Not a worry and not a care I'm happy to say I may be slow but I'm getting there Going my own sweet way ------- I stopped listening long ago When money talked Didn't hear a word that he had to say I chose to refuse I put on my shoes I got up and walked away ------- Now I'm sitting in my easy-chair Watching the clock go round I'm happy going nowhere Suits me down to the ground ------- Quit chasing other people's dreams I just live for today I'm as free as a mountain stream Going my own sweet way ------- Now I'm sitting in my easy-chair Watching the clock go round I'm happy going nowhere Suits me down to the ground ------- Quit chasing other people's dreams I just live for today I'm as free as a mountain stream Going my own sweet way Going my own sweet way Going my own sweet way.
