Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

In a mountain greenery
Where God paints the scenery
Just two crazy people together
While you love your lover
Let blue skies be your coverlet
When it rains we'll laugh at the weather

So you can cook
While I stand looking

In a beanery

Where God paints the scenery
Just three crazy people together
How we love sequestering
Where no pests are pestering
No men holds us together

Mosquitoes here
Won't bite you, dear
I'll let them sting
Me on my finger

We could find no cleaner retreat 
From life's machinery
Than our mountain greenery
