Down in the foothills of the Carolina mountains
There’s a cabin in the woods by a stream
And when life gets rough -- I mean wall-bashin’ tough
I stick both feet up on my desk and dream
Verse
Well, well I dream myself right down to my favorite fishin’ hole there
And I trek around the banks without a care
This pen behind my ear becomes a 10-foot fishing pole
Next thing you know I’m castin’ in the air
Chorus
I go for relaxation with no complication
No time away, no costly travel fare
I take one great vacation in my imagination
With peaceful scenes around me everywhere
You’ll find some relaxation without complication
No time away, no lengthy travel plans
Just one real short vacation in your imagination
Will bring you back your sanity again
Instrumental Bridge
Verse
Here’s my advice to all you stressed out eight-to-nine-o’clockaholics
Until you recognize it’s crazy working sixty hour weeks
Just give yourself a little time out -- a momentary break-out
Stick both feet up on your desk and dream
Verse
Then conjure up some tempting picture of some place you’d like to be
If you could leave your work and travel there today
Like cruising down some river or lying on a beach somewhere
Whatever scene would drive that stress away
Chorus
I go for relaxation with no complication
No time away, no costly travel fares
I take one great vacation in my imagination
With peaceful scenes around me everywhere
Go get some relaxation without complication
No time away, no lengthy travel plans
Just one real short vacation in your imagination
Will bring you back your sanity again
Just one real short vacation in your imagination
Will bring you back your sanity again
It’ll bring you back your sanity again
And again...and again
