It's so Peaceful in the Country Songtext

von Mildred Bailey

It's so peaceful in the country
It's so simple and quiet
You really outta try it
You walk about
And talk about
The pleasant things in life

It's so restful in the country
It's the right kind of diet
You really outta try it
You lie and dream
Beside a stream
Where daisies nod "Hello"

City living is a pretty living
It's so full of unexpected thrill
But there's too much stone
Too much telephone
There's too much of everything
But trees and hills

It's so peaceful in the country
It's so simple and quiet
Someday you're bound to try it
The only place to be
The place for you and me
Where it's peaceful in the country

The skyline of New York
Is a splendid sight
I know Chicago's loop
Is magical at night
The natives of Cleveland
Of 'Frisco and Boston
And natives of cities
A stranger gets lost in
All of them claim
That their city's the best
From deep in the South
And from out in the West

Perhaps it's all true
But from my point of view

It's so peaceful in the country
It's so simple and quiet
Someday you're bound to try it

The only place to be
The place for you and me
Where it's peaceful
In the country
