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
