Nothing But A Breeze — текст песни (John Denver)

Life is just too short for some folks;
For other folks it just drags on.
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey;
Others figure tea`s too strong.
I`m the kind of guy who likes to stand in the middle.
I don`t like all this bouncing back and forth.
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie
and my head in the cool blue north.

In a small suburban garden not a single neighbour knows our name.
I know that the woman wishes we could move
where the houses aren`t all the same.
Say, Johnny, I would like to go where the grass is greener.
I couldn`t really say where it might be.
But some place high on a mountaintop down by the deep blue sea.
There we`ll do just as we please, `cause it ain`t nothing but a breeze.

Someday I`ll be your great grandpa.
All the pretty girls will call me Sir.
Now when they`re asking me how things are.
Soon they`ll ask me how things were.
I don`t mind being an old grey grandpa
as long as you`ll be my great grandma.
And I think we should move with our tea and cookies
to the shade of the old Pau Pau.

There we`ll do just as we please, `cause it ain`t nothing but a cool breeze.

Life is just too short for some folks;
For other folks it just drags on.
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey;
Others figure tea`s too strong.
I`m the kind of guy who likes to stand in the middle.
I don`t like all this bouncing back and forth.
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie
and my head in the cool blue north.
I said: Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie
and my head in the cool blue north.
