Lyrics
Chorus
Come, let’s settle down
In some small country town
Away from all this care and strife
Far, far away from Cabaret
We’ll stay among the Jays
And live the quiet simple life
And from the time the rooster calls
I’ll wear my overalls
And you’ll wear a simple gingham gown
So, if you’re strong for a shower of rice
We could make a Paradise
Out of a One-Horse Town
