It's
so peaceful in the country.
It's so simple and quiet.
You really ought to try it.
You walk about an d talk about
the pleasant things in life.
It's so restful in the country.
It's the right kind of diet.
You really ought to try it,
you lying dream
Beside a stream where daisies nod,
hello
City living is a pretty living
It's so full of unexpected thrill s
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 ma gical at night
The natives of Cleveland,
of Frisco and Boston
And natives of cities
a stranger gets lost
All of them claim that
their city's the best
From deep in the south
an d 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.
