Description
laying in the grass
there by the river side
time slowly passed
back then i was a child
the flowers they were shining
the birds they sang their song
back then i thought
that nothing could go wrong
the village is real quiet
the village is real sane
your image ain’t no riot
there ain’t no pain to gain
the village let you breath
the village let you smile
i do my good deed
and live on for a while
well i went to the city
i became a robot mind
i really felt shitty
man the folk they weren’t kind
there were too many cars
there was too much smoke
there were too many scars
man i allmost did choke
the village is real quiet
the village is real sane
your image ain’t no riot
there ain’t no pain to gain
the village let you breath
the village let you smile
i do my good deed
and live on for a while
so i went back home
the sun was pure and warm
i was too far gone
i went through some storm
but there in the country
i inhaled the healthy air
all shit did pass
as if it never had been there
the village is real quiet
the village is real sane
your image ain’t no riot
there ain’t no pain to gain
the village let you breath
the village let you smile
i do my good deed
and live on for a while
