Where Have All The Average People Gone(Single Version) - Roger Miller

作词：Dennis Linde

作曲：Dennis Linde

The people in this city call me country

Because of how I walk and talk and smile

Well I don mind them laughing in the city

But the country folks all say I citified

The fighting men they say

That I a coward

Because I never push no one around

Gentle people call me trouble maker

I always fight

And stand my ground

Funny I don fit

Where have all the average people gone

Some pious people point and call me sinner

Because to them I never seen the lights

Other folks think of me as a preacher

I just doing what I think is right

The wealthy people think

That I am a hobo

Lean and hungry writing mournful songs

And the poor poor people think

I am a rich man

But really I just trying to get along

It funny I don fit

Tell me where have all

The average people gone

And the government

Has given me a number

To simplify my birth and life and death

And still my woman thinks

I awful important

Like the moon and the sun

And the sea and the sky and breath

Yes it funny I don fit

Where have all the average people gone

Funny I don fit

Where have all the average people gone
