Roger Creager Storybook Lyrics:
Roger Creager

Sometimes I sit in my backyard, I kick back and
drink iced tea I stare all the way to the ocean
and dream of how it would be If I were a ship
captain somewhere or an old fashioned sailor at
sea Or a stowed away pirate just down below hiding
and praying the law dont find me Maybe I'd sail
from Nantucket chasing the great white whale Oh
without a sound, I'd run him aground then I'd
bring old Ahab the tail Yeah I'd bring old Ahab
his tail

Chorus: But I'm not a (sailor, outlaw, runaway),
I'm just a man stuck here in the promise land
Living hard and living free I'm a dreamer that's
what I got, Oh but here goes one last shot I hope

someday they're dreaming about me

Sometimes I dream Im a cowboy around 1949 Id cross
the border on horseback with a real close buddy of
mine Id know we'd run from trouble but Im sure its
what we'd find When you're out of the frying pan
into the fire, who cares what you leave behind I
know i'd fall in love down there and I'd probably
end up in jail When you fall in love with a rich
man's daughter, 'who's gonna go your bail Ohhh i
hate them Mexican jails---

Chorus

I'd love to go rafting the waters. riding the
mighty Mississippi I'd float around from town to
town causing trouble then I'd give'em the slip
That water could take me back to the days of old
Huck Finn I'd sleep all day and smoke all night
and play tricks on old Jim Yeah I'd think I'd like
old Jim
