Robert Frost (Album Version) - Karrin Allyson
Written by：Jay Leonhar
Robert Frost did write in
Settings beautiful and rustic
He wrote of rolling hills and green terrain
But poor me I must do my writing
In the chaos of the city
Sometimes even on a subway train
How am I to ever learn about the woodlands
And the falling leaves of autumn
And such things sublime
When I must spend all my time
Just trucking 'round this dirty city
Doing what I can to earn
A dime dime dime
How did Robert Frost make payments on
That little country place of his
Where did he get the dough
Could he go down to the country store
And sell a poem saying
"Here's a nice one I wrote about the snow"
Surely now he must have had
A sponsor of some sort
Perhaps a lady friend just rolled in bread
A lady friend to say "Now Bob
Why don't you take a long long walk
And write whatever pops into
Your head head head"
She'd say
"Bobby don't you worry about
The mortgage
No no
Bobby don't you worry about those bills
Bobby why don't you go write
A poem about the neighbors
About the fences about the rolling hills "
"Bobby don't you worry about the dishes
And don't you even think about those pans
Bobby you know it's not good
That an artist like yourself
Should be walking around
This world with dishpan hands "
So you see now Bob was free to
Follow through his fancies
Wander through the hills behind the muse
Boy if I had Bobby's life
I'd follow through my fancies
Oh to be in Bobby's shoes
If I had Bobby's life I could be a hero
Go out and find my fortune and my fame
The only trouble is
I hear from people who have found it
That everything in life stays
Just the same same same
Just the same
Stays the same
Just the same
