| Now, three score years and ten
|
| He has earned the time
|
| To putter in the garden
|
| Time to plant potatoes
|
| Time to plant some beans
|
| The butcher bird is waiting
|
| She knows what this means
|
| Old boy takes a break
|
| Spreads honey on some bread
|
| The butcherbird is busy
|
| Makin' sure her worm is dead
|
| Old boy doesn’t close his eyes to imagine anymore
|
| He is home at last
|
| What he’s been wishin' for
|
| He is so peaceful
|
| So happy, he could scream
|
| Livin' in the valley
|
| The valley of his dreams
|
| Why does it take so long
|
| To put your fate on the ground?
|
| The old boy is thinkin'
|
| He took the long way around
|
| But it’s been his dream time
|
| It’s where he’s always been
|
| The butcherbird says it all
|
| Sweeter than a violin
|
| Now, three score years and ten
|
| He has earned the time
|
| To putter in the garden
|
| He’ll be pickin' chillies
|
| He’ll be makin' chili oil
|
| Goin' back to be the man
|
| A man of the soil
|
| He is so peaceful (Oh, yeah)
|
| So happy, he could scream
|
| Livin' in the valley (Mmm)
|
| The valley of his dreams
|
| Why does it take so long
|
| To put your fate on the ground?
|
| The old boy is thinkin'
|
| He took the long way around
|
| But it’s been his dream time
|
| It’s where he’s always been
|
| The butcherbird says it all
|
| Sweeter than a violin
|
| I have hopes, and I have a plan
|
| I need your love and I need your hand
|
| To help me through the future that I see
|
| Call me obsessed, call me mad
|
| You’re the best woman I’ve ever had
|
| You’re the one to share the valley with me
|
| I don’t believe there’s anything else
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| I’m in Heaven and I am sad
|
| On every day that I miss
|
| No, I don’t believe that there is more
|
| I won’t be knocking on Saint Peter’s door
|
| The gate is open to see what I can see
|
| A snake will bite, an ant will sting
|
| Mother Nature is my king
|
| Every day, the bush is callin' me
|
| I don’t believe there’s anything else
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| I’m in Heaven and I am sad
|
| On every day that I miss
|
| People talk of paradise
|
| When you die, it’s their advice
|
| The more you suffer, the better it will be
|
| Somewhere up there in the sky
|
| Angels show us how to fly
|
| The prettiest wings when you feel like me
|
| I don’t believe there’s anything else
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| I’m in Heaven and I am sad
|
| On every day that I miss
|
| And, no, I don’t believe there’s anything else
|
| It doesn’t get better than this
|
| I’m in Heaven and I am sad
|
| On every day that I miss |
