Sitting on the front porch
With a cold one in my hand
People watching (watching)
A young couple on the corner
Looking like forever
And sweet talking (talking)

There's an old man with a cane
I think Jethro is his name
Is having a little trouble
While he's street crossing
But I'm not going nowhere
I'm just sitting right here
People watching

Miss Tina in her tight dress
High heels on, oh, I guess
She's going downtown (downtown)
The old men all aflutter
Elbowing each other
When she comes around (comes around)

Mmh, mmh, oh
I think my beer is getting low
Why does that seem to happen
To me so often?
But I ain't going nowhere
I'm just sitting right here
People watching

Everybody's got a story
Everybody's got a song
I could sit here forever
While the parade keeps marching
On, and on, and on
All along
People watching

Everybody's got a story
Everybody's got a song
I could sit here forever
While the parade keeps marching
On, and on, and on
All along
People watching

I said, wonder if there's someone
Watching me while
I'm people watching
It's better than anything that's on TV
People watching
