Johnny's Garden Lyrics

Manassas Johnny's Garden

There's a place
I can get to
Where I'm safe
From the city blues
And its green
And its quiet
Only trouble was
I had to buy it

chorus
And 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 garden >

As the swift bird
Flies over the grasses
Dipping now and then
To take his breakfast
Thus I come and go
And I travel
But I can watch that bird
And unravel

chorus

With 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 hours

chorus
