John Denver - Nothing But A Breeze Lyrics
This song was first released on the seasons of the heart album. it is the only album it has been released on.Life is just too short for some folksFor other folks it just drags onSome folks like the taste of smokey whiskeyOthers figure teas too strongWell, Im the type of guy who wants to ride the middleI dont like all this bouncing back and forthMe, I want to live with my feet in dixieAnd my head in the cool blue northIn a small suburban gardenNot a single neighbour knows our nameI know the woman wishes we would move some placeWhere the houses arent all the sameJesse, I wish you would take mewhere the grass is greenerI couldnt really say where it may beOh, some place high on a montain topBown by the deep blue seaAnd there well do just as we pleaseIt aint nothing but a breezeOne day Ill be old gray grandpaAll the pretty girls will call me sirNow where theyre asking me how things areSoon theyll ask me how things areWell, I dont mind being an old gray grandpaAs long as youll be my gray grandmaBut I wish we would move with our tea and cookiesTo the shade of the old pawpawThere well do just as we pleaseIt aint nothing but a breezeLife is just too short for some folksFor other foks it just drags onSome folks like the taste of smokey whiskeyOthers figure teas too strongWell, Im the type of guy who wants to ride in the middleI dont like all this bouncing back and forthMe, I want to live with my feet in dixieAnd my head in the cool blue northWords and music by jesse winchester
