Mountain Greenery Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

On the first of May
It is moving day
Spring is here
So blow your job
Throw your job away

Now′s the time to trust
To your wanderlust
In the city's dust you wait
Must you wait?
Just you wait

In a mountain greenery
Where God paints the scenery
Just two crazy people together


While you love your lover
Let blue skies be your coverlet
When it rains, we′ll laugh at the weather

And if you're good
I'll search for wood
So, you can cook
While I stand lookin′

Beans could get no keener reception in a beanery
Bless our mountain greenery home

Mosquitoes here
Won′t bite you, dear
I'll let them sting
Me on the finger

We could find no cleaner retreat
From life′s machinery
Than our mountain greenery home
