Little Town

Sometimes when I'm out wondering,
Deciding what I should dream
I lie in the fields under the sun
And feel the cooling breeze

I watch the wild horses run by,
Such mighty steeds
They run into the horizon and
Meet the clouds I see

I walk down to the creek,
Surrounded by towering trees
I hear the calming rustling
Of spring's tree's leaves

I dip my hands into the water
And wash them sparkling clean
I hear the buzz of nature's pests
And wouldn't change a thing

I walk onto the bridge that
Surveys the idyllic scene,
The bubbling creek runs underneath
With the crowded fish swimming

The branches sway and wind blows
As the birds sing
Clouds pass in front of the sun
But the shade is fleeting

After a day of wandering I
Tire and then I see
Old Pa's Place and Bar
And get excited as can be

They're no frowns allowed inside,
Leave them at the door
They're so many things inside
You won't know what's in store

Well...
There's a dog in the den
While the cat takes a nap
And the fire burns bright with a pop and a snap
There'll be chicken on your chin
And your belly will begin
To fill up so much that you can't fit in
The clothes that you came with
But the buzz from the beer
Will make you unaware as it fills you with cheer
Just remember before you eat that you have to say grace

And you'll have a great time at Old Pa's Place!
