(Dr. Richard Peddicord)

Billy Joe went lookin' round
|
One yellow summer day
|
To see if he could find some grass
|
To help him on his way
|
But everywhere that Billy went
|
They said the town was dry
|
So he got to talkin' round
|
And ask the reason why.
|
|
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
He asked the reason why
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
When we're gonna get our dope!
|
|
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
Won't you help him on his way
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
Won't you help him on his way.
|
|
|
They said they're burning farmers now
|
Long live Mexico!
|
For some uncertain reason now
|
Just won't let grass grow
|
All we have to do is wait some more
|
And bide our time
|
And pretty soon the times will change
|
And grass will flow like wine.
|
|
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
Grass will flow like wine
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
Grass will flow like wine
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
Grass will flow like wine
|
Oh! pleasant hope
|
Grass will flow like wine!
