At the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on his face 
There ain't no fields to plow
No reason to now
He's just a little out of place 

They say crime don't pay
But neither does farmin' these days
And the coffee is cold
And he's fifty years old
And he's gotta learn to live some other way 

At the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on his face 
There ain't no fields to plow
He's busin' tables now
He's just a little out of place 

And the meek shall inherit the earth
And the bank shall repossess it
This job don't pay half what it's worth
But it's a thankful man that gets it 

At the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on his face 
There ain't no fields to plow
He's wishin' for one now
He's just a little out of place 

All these soldiers without wars
And hometown boys without a home
Farmers without fields
Dealers without deals
And they sit here drinkin' coffee all alone 

At the cafe down on the corner
With a lost look on their face 
There ain't no fields to plow
They're wishin' for one now
They're just a little out of place

Sawyer Brown

Sawyer Brown is an American country music band founded in 1981 in Apopka, Florida, by five members of country pop singer Don King's road band: Bobby Randall (guitar) and Jim Scholten (bass guitar), both from Midland, Michigan; Joe Smyth (drums), Gregg "Hobie" Hubbard (keyboards), and Mark Miller (lead vocals). After King retired in 1981, the five members decided to form a band, first choosing the name Savanna before switching to Sawyer Brown, also the name of a road near where they practiced. more »
