Lyrics:
There's a placeI can get toWhere I'm safeFrom the city bluesAnd its greenAnd its quietOnly trouble wasI had to buy itAnd I'll do anything I got to do Cut my hair and shine my shoes chorusAnd keep on singin' the blues If I can stay here in Johnny's garden As the swift birdFlies over the grassesDipping now and thenTo take his breakfastThus I come and goAnd I travelAnd I can watch that birdAnd unravelchorus --With his loveAnd his carin'He puts his lifeInto beauty sharin'And his childrenAre his flowersThere to give us peaceIn quiet hourschorus --
