There's a place I can get to
Where I'm safe from the city blues
And it's green and it's quiet
Only trouble was I had to buy it
And I'll do anything I got to do
Cut my hair and Shine my shoes

And keep on singin' the blues

If I can stay here in Johnny's garden
As the swift bird flies over the grasses
Dipping now and then to take his breakfast
Thus I come and go and I travel
And I can watch that bird and unravel

And keep on singin' the blues

With his love and his carin'
He puts his life into beauty sharin'
And his children are his flowers
There to give us peacе in quiet hours

And keep on singin' the blues
