I guess he'd rather be in colorado

He'd rather spend his time out where the sky looks like a pearl after the rain

Once again to see him walkin'

Once again to hear him talkin'

To the stars he makes and askin' them for bus fares

I guess he'd rather be in colorado

He'd rather play his banjo in the morning when the moon is scarcely gone

In the dawn the subway's comin'

In the dawn i hear him comin'

Some old song he wrote of love in boulder canyon

Guess he'd rather be in colorado

Guess he'd rather be in colorado

Guess he'd rather work out where the only thing you earn is what you spend

In the end i'm in his office

In the end a quiet cough is all he has to show

He lives in new york city
