Through the long grass, past the tall trees
There's a cabin that’s a nestling in the pines
Where my sweethearts catching small fish
With a cane and a bent pin on a line
So if you’re passing close by, please
Come and join us join our company and


There's my daddy on the front porch
With a lazy hound lying by his feet
And my mommy’s in the kitchen
With the table all ready set to eat
So if you’re passing close by, please
Come and join us join our company


Oh Oh Oh I just want to be there
Underneath the sun and the deep, deep blue sky...and
Oh Oh Oh I just want to be there
Even when it rains and it pours it’s a paradise

Dooya doodn doo doo doo Dooya doodn doo doo doo
Doo doo, doo doo, doo doo

Dooya doodn doo doo doo Dooya doodn doo doo doo
Doo doo, doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo

Cousin Norman comes a courting
With the same girl every single day
Got a stammer, like a hammer
You can't understand a word that he s-says
So if you’re passing close by, please
Come and join us join our company


Oh Oh Oh I just want to be there
Underneath the sun and the deep, deep blue sky... and
Oh Oh Oh I just want to be there
Even when it rains and it pours it’s a paradise

Oh Oh Oh I just want to be there
Underneath the sun and the deep, deep blue sky... and
Oh Oh Oh I just want to be there
Even when it rains and it pours it’s a paradise
