Casting Beauty

Traffic hums in the city square

Static noise on the evening air

But my mind's on a country road Where the river's cool and

the water flows

I don't need no gold or a crowded room

Just a simple plan in the afternoon (humm-mm)

Give me a pretty girl and a fishing pole

Let the quiet river heal my weary soul

Sitting by the bank till the sun goes down

Far away from the noise of the busy town (yeah,

far away)

She's got a smile like the summer sun

Laughing soft when the day is done

Bobber floating on the glassy blue

There ain't nothing else we need to do

Let the phones ring out,

let the world spin fast

We found a moment

that is made to last

Give me a pretty girl and a fishing pole

Let the quiet river heal my weary soul

Sitting by the bank till the sun goes down

Far away from the noise of the busy town (ooh,

far away)

Just a pretty girl and a fishing pole

(mm-mm, down by the water)
