Motion pictures
On my TV screen
A home away from home
Livin' in between
But I hear some people
Have got their dream
I've got mine
I hear the mountains
Are doin' fine
Mornin' glory
Is on the vine
And the dew is fallin'
The ducks are callin'
Yes, I've got mine
Well, all those people
They think
They got it made
But I wouldn't buy
Sell, borrow or trade
Anything I have
To be like one of them
I'd rather
Start all over again
Well, all those headlines
They just bore me now
I'm deep inside myself
But I'll get out somehow
And I'll stand before you
And I'll bring
A smile to your eyes
Motion pictures
