Lyrics:

Through the long grass, past the tall trees
Lies a cabin nestlin' in the pines
And my sweetheart is catching small fish
With a cane and a bent pin on a line
So if you're passing close by, please
Come and join us, join our company

There's my daddy on the front porch
With a lazy hound lying by his feet
And my mama's in the kitchen
With the table all ready set to eat
So if you're passing close by, please
Come and join us, join our company

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I just want to be there
Underneath the sun and the deep, deep blue sky
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I just want to be there
Even when it rains and it pours, it's a paradise

Doo doo...

Cousin Norman comes a courtin'
With the same girl every day
He's got a stammer like a hammer
Can't understand a word that he says
So if you're passing close by, please
Come and join us, join our company

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I just want to be there
Underneath the sun and the deep, deep blue sky
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I just want to be there
Even when it rains and it pours, it's a paradise

Oh, oh, oh, oh, I just want to be there
Underneath the sun and the deep, deep blue sky
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I just want to be there
Underneath the sun and the deep, deep blue sky
