I Guess He'd Rather Be in Colorado

I Guess He'd Rather Be In Colorado - Mary Travers

Written by：Bill Danof/Taffy Nivert

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado

He'd rather spend his time

Out where the sky looks like a pearl after a rain

Once again I see him walking

Once again I hear him talking to the stars he makes

And asking them for bus fare

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado

He'd rather play his banjo in the morning

When the moon is scarcely gone

In the dawn the subways coming in the dawn I hear him humming

Some old song he wrote of love in Boulder Canyon

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado

I guess he'd rather be in Colorado

I guess he'd rather work

Out where the only thing you earn is what you spend

In the end up in his office

In the end a quiet cough is all he has to show

He lives in New York City
