It’s so peaceful in the country nIt’s so simple and quietnYou really ought to try itnYou walk about and talk aboutnThe pleasant things in lifenIt’s so restful in the countrynIt’s the right kind of diet nYou really ought to try itnYou lie and dreamnBeside a stream nWhere daisies nod hellonCity living is a pretty living nIt’s so full of unexpected thrills nBut there’s too much stone nToo much telephone nThere’s too much of everything but trees and hillsnIt’s so peaceful in the country nIt’s so simple and quite nSomeday you’re bound to try itnThe only place to be nIs a place for you and me nWhere it’s peaceful in the countrynThe skyline of New York is a splendid sight nI know Chicago’s loop is magical at nightnThe natives of Cleveland from Frisco and Boston nAnd natives of cities a stranger gets lost in nAll of them claim that their city’s the best nFrom deep in the south and from out in the west nPerhaps it’s all true but from my point of viewnIt’s so peaceful in the countrynIt’s so simple and quiet nSomeday you’re bound to try it nThe only place to be nIs a place for you and me nWhere it’s peaceful in the country
