Middle of Nowhere

Middle of Nowhere

My favorite picture on the wall
a girl, log cabin, and a coupla' dogs.

Beyond her is a big red barn,
she's got a shovel and a pitchfork
swung over each arm
looks like another dusty day
of work on the farm...

There's an old dirt road
that will take you there.
If you don't have a worry
if you aint got a care...

Chorus
I would be happy there
out in the middle of nowhere.
With my old beat up Ford
my green broke horse
I'm sitting on the front porch...

Sitting on the front porch
with the dogs layin' at my feet
we've got a lot of mountain
and a little creek out there...

Out in the middle of nowhere.

Loretta Lynn and Hank Williams
are singing to me through the window.
I've got a bread in the oven
and a stew over the stove.

Tonight I'll braid down my long brown hair
and I'll pack up the saddle bags on the mare
I've got a fence to fix,
you see me riding over that ridge?

I would be happy there
out in the middle of nowhere.
With my old beat up Ford
and my green-broke horse
sitting on the front porch.

Sitting on the front porch
with the dogs layin' at my feet,
we've got a lot of mountain 
and a little creek out there...

Out in the middle of nowhere.

My favorite picture on the wall...
