Waiting on Zack

Lyrics

[Verse] Well, we're waiting on Zack again this mornin', Sun's already high, sky is blue. Coffee's cold, toast is gettin' boring, He's in the bathroom, nothin' new. [Verse 2] Old truck's engine, it's idle hummin', Front porch creaks with every sway. Out on the farm, critters start a-runnin', Zack's got us waitin' another day. [Chorus] Oh, Zack, when you gonna be through? We've got fields to plow and cattle to shoe. The whole darn town is wonderin' too, Boy, it seems forever, what you gotta do. [Verse 3] Roosters crowed and the sun keeps climbin', Clock keeps tickin', time don’t fly. Fence needs mendin', it's hard timin' When Zack’s in there for days gone by. [Bridge] The moths are disappearin', dusk's a-fallin', Lanterns lit, chores done in vain. Even the dogs have stopped their callin', Still waitin' on Zack, in the land of grain. [Verse 4] Momma’s bakin', pies in the oven, Sweet smell fills the kitchen air. Dad’s readin’ news, daily dozen, No one moves, but throws a stare.
