Johnny's Garden - Manassas

Johnny's Garden Lyrics

There's a place
I can get to
Where I'm safe
From the city bluesAnd it's green
And it's quiet
Only trouble was
I had to buy itAnd I'll do anything I got to do
Cut my hair and shine my shoes
And keep on singin' the blues
If I can stay here in Johnny's gardenAs the swift bird
Flies over the grasses
Dipping now and then
To take his breakfastThus I come and go
And I travel
But I can watch that bird
And unravelAnd I'll do anything I got to do
Cuttin' my hair and shine my shoes
And keep on singin' the blues

If I can stay here in Johnny's gardenWith his love
And his carin'
He puts his life
Into beauty sharin'And his children
Are his flowers
And they give me peace
In quiet hoursAnd I'll do anything I got to do
Cuttin' my hair and shine my shoes
And keep on singin' the blues
If I can stay here in Johnny's garden
