Just Waitin'

Lyrics

The old maid's waitin' for leap year to come
 The crooner's just waitin' to sing
 The old cow's standin' by the Bull Durham sign
 Just awaitin' for the grass to turn green
 The bar-fly's waitin' for an easy mark
 An' the hitch-hiker's waitin' for a ride
 The life-termer's waitin' for a prison break
 The beachcomber's waitin' for the tide
 Farmer's daughter's waitin' for the salesman
 To take her into town
 The city slicker's waitin' for the country boy
 To lay all his money down
 You know everything comes to a standstill
 Nothin' seems to make a turn
 Worm must be waitin' for the early bird
 I guess the early bird's waitin' for the worm
 Nobody wants to do nothin'
 Just waitin' to get a finger in the pie
 Waitin' for a call from a big quiz show
 Or hopin' and awaitin' for some rich uncle to die
 ♪
 Katy, she's waitin' at the garden gate
 The moonshiner's waitin' at the still
 An' the gambler's still waitin' for that ace in the hole
 I guess, Jack's still waitin' for Jill
 Everybody's waitin' for somethin'
 Nothin' seems to turn out right
 'Cause the night shift's waitin' for mornin'
 And the burglar just waitin' for night
 The congregation's waitin' for the preacher
 Preacher just waitin' for the groom
 The groom's just waitin' for the June bride
 And the bride's just waitin' for June
 Sunflowers waitin' for the sunshine
 Violets just waitin' for dew
 Bees just waitin' for honey
 And, honey, I'm just waitin' for you
