I'm really not a working man I'm mostly fancy free And I'm not a worry man just try to let things be There's not a lot I'm wanting just open space and time And if I don't get what I want well...that's OK just fine! Now when I was a little kid they called me Turtle Joe Cause everywhere that we would meet I was the last to show Always two steps backwards always last to cross the line But none of that bothered me cause my best friend was time! Now I've been to the mountains and yes I've seen the sea And love that blue sky overhead it sets my soul at ease Its those fields of endless flowers and those distant dark tall trees That hint of magic secrets that are always calling me! I really don't judge others people do what people do And if they had their druthers they'd all be like me too! Yet someone has to do the work has to make things go So I let others take the lead and let them run the show. Now some folks just don't like me don't like the way I am Think that I'm just faking it sneaking by with old flimflam They say my head is in the clouds that I'm just a dreamer man They just don't see how one gets by on just catch-as-catch-can! Now I've been to the mountains and yes I've seen the sea And love that blue sky overhead it sets my soul at ease Its those fields of endless flowers and those distant dark tall trees That hint of magic secrets that are always calling me! Now I can say I made it friend with some old good know-how Did it always the honest way learned it all somehow Am proud to say I always said just what was on my mind And right to say that what I got I earned and its all mine! There's not much more I can say cause I'm heading right on out To the mountains and the sea that's what I'm all about And yes I still am "Turtle Joe" and still good friends with time And it don't bother me at all if I am last in line! Now I've been to the mountains and yes I've seen the sea And love that blue sky overhead it sets my soul at ease Its those fields of endless flowers and those distant dark tall trees That hint of magic secrets that are always calling me!
