Richard Rodgers
Mountain Greenery
On the first of May, it is moving day
Spring is here, so blow your job
Throw your job away!
Now's the time to trust
To your wanderlust
In the city's dust you wait, must you wait
Just you wait.......!
In a mountain greenery
Where God paints the scenery
Just two crazy people together
While you love your lover
Let blue skies, be your cover-let
When it rains we'll laugh at the weather
And if you're good
I'll search for wood
So you can cook... while I stand look-in'
Beans could get no keener reception in a beanery
Bless our mountain greenery home!
Mosquitoes here
Won't bite you dear
I'll let them sting, me on the finger!
We could find no cleaner retreat from life's machinery
Then our mountain greenery home
