I've reached the end of an endless summer, yeah,
I just woke up, oh yeah, from a crazy dream,
I'm getting up with my eyes wide open, yeah,
And I'm seeing the things that my eyes ain't never seen.

Well, I heard the bell in the nick of time, but the green gets greener on the other side,
Still I ride - what's a cowboy to do'
Bronco Billy rides a buck on the go-round, got thrown in the corporate hoedown,
Swimming like a fish up the stream, and he's holding on to a piece of the dream where the bright lights sure ain't all that they seem,
Feels like he's heading for the fall.

I've reached the end of an endless summer, yeah,
I just woke up from a crazy dream,
I'm getting up with my eyes wide open, yeah,
And I'm seeing the things that my eyes ain't never seen,
Oh, no, no.

It's said that money talks, and I'll not deny,
I heard it once: it said, "Goodbye,"
Oh Lord, I've got to put my trust in you.

Came a whisper that we're playing the fools,
You can't win when they're changing the rules,
And I'm ready to wish on a star,
Yes, I know, Lord, you've brought me this far,
And I've learned that it's only you who can change my attitude.

Sometimes truth, oh, is stranger than fiction, yeah,
What we do, what we say, is like the east and the west, and the north and the south,
And the black and the white, and the day and the night,
It's like the east and the west, and the north and the south,
And the black and the white, and the day and the night,
It's like the east and the west, and the north and the south,
And the black and the white, and the day and the night,
It's like the east and the west, and the north and the south,
And the black and the white, and the day and the night.

Childhood, just like springtime,
Eternal youth all summer long,
Can I make it in the harvest'
When winter's done, that's all.

Oh, save my soul,
Winter, spring and summer,
Let it fall apart.

I've just woke up from a crazy dream, and I'm seeing things I've never seen,
Oh, I've reached the end,
