Spring is here, so blow your job - throw your job   away

just two crazy people together.

   so  you can cook    while I stand looking.

Beans could get no keener reception in a beanery.

Simple cooking means more than French cuisines

Coffee's just as grand with a little sand

beneath the eyes on no Pa and no Ma Where Mother Nature is boss 
F#m             Em              F#m            Em 
Washing dishes, Catching fishes by the running stream 
F#m                      Em         Am7           D  
We'll curse the smell of citronella even while we dream.

Your head upon the ground, your downy pillow is just a boulder

In a   mountain greenery where God paints the scenery

just two crazy people together.

How we  love sequestering where no pests are pestering

No dear ma-ma holds us in tether.  
   G7      C6   Dm7     G7        C6  
Mosquitoes here   won't bite you, dear 
Dm7     G7       Em7   A7        Am7 D7 
   I'll let them sting  me on my fin-ger 

G  Em7   Am7     D         G     Em7  Am7      D   
We could find no cleaner retreat from life's machinery 
G    Em7 Am7      D         G     Em7 Am7        D  
Than our mountain greenery  where God paints the scenery 
G     Em7 Am7      D7       G     Gmaj7  
Bless our mountain greenery home
