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 a-waitin' for the grass to turn green.

The bar-flys waitin' for an easy mark
'n the hitch-hikers waitin' for a ride
The life-termers waitin' for a prison break
The beachcombers waitin' for the ride.

Farmer's daughters waitin' for the salesman
To take her into town
The city slickers waitin' for the country boy
To lay all his money down.

You know evrything 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 a-waitin' and for some rich uncle to die.

Katy, she's waitin' at the garden gate
The moonshiner's waitin' at the still
'n the gamblers still waitin' for that ace in the hole
I guess Jack's still waitin for Jill.

Evrybody's waitin' for somthin'
Nothing seems to turn out right
cause the night shifts waitin' for mornin'
And the burglar just waitin' for night.

The congregations waitin' for the preacher
Preacher just waitin' for the groom
The grooms just waiti' for the june bride
And the brides 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.
