Where the rippling river runs down the hill On it's way to the shiny sea And a speckled crow keeps a-looking out At a guy that I call me Where the blackbird looks to a shady nook To woo his lady fair Well I pull my boots Stretch right out And take a snooze in the quiet air Well the rumble and the rattle of the city The hurry and the worry what a pity Did God create all this in vain? If He did, it's a doggone shame Well some day a girl, a pretty girl With me all this will share And we'll pull our boots, stretch right out And take a snooze in the quiet air Well the rumble and the rattle of the city The hurry and the worry what a pity Did God create all this in vain? If He did, it's a doggone shame Well some day a girl, a pretty girl With me all this will share And we'll pull our boots, stretch right out And take a snooze in the quiet air
