Where Have All The Average People Gone - Single Version

Album: Roger Miller Durasi: 3:01

The people in the city call me country

Because of how I walk and talk and smile

Well I don't mind them laughin' in the city

But the country folks all say I'm citified

The fightin' men may say that I'm a coward

Because I never pushed no one around

Gentle people call me troublemaker

'Cause I'll always fight and stand my ground

Funny I don't fit

Where have all the average people gone?

Some pious people point and call me sinner

Because to them I've never seen the light

Other folks think of me as a preacher

I'm just doin' what I think is right

The wealthy people think that I am a hobo

Lean and hungry, writin' mornful songs

And the poor, poor people think I am a rich man

But really I'm just tryin' to get along

Yes, it's funny I don't fit

Tell me where have all the average people gone?

And the government has given me a number

To simplify my birth and life and death

And still my woman thinks I'm awful important

Like moon and sun and sea and sky and breath

Yes, it's funny I don't fit

Where have all the average people gone?

Funny I don't fit

Where have all the average people gone?
