Shadow of a Shade Tree

Right now I'm runnin' fast,

Tryin' to make the magic last.

Takin' my big chance,

Up in the spotlight.

I'm puttin' my pennies away,

Savin' up for a rainy day.

So when nobody knows my name,

It'll be alright.

In the shadow of a shade tree,

That's where you're gonna find me.

Tucked away on some side street,

In a sleepy small town.

No name on the mailbox,

Front door that I don't lock.

Honey, it won't take a lot to make me happy,

In the shadow of a shade tree.

I'm lovin' this crazy life,

Get to play my music live.

Then drive all night,

Just to do it again.

I got a million songs to sing,

Livin' this crazy dream.

And I'm thankful for everything,

So when it comes to an end...

In the shadow of a shade tree,

That's where you're gonna find me.

Tucked away on some side street,

In a sleepy small town.

No name on the mailbox,

Front door that I don't lock.

Honey, it won't take a lot to make me happy,

In the shadow of a shade tree.
