Letra Nothing but a breeze John Denver

Nothing but a breeze

This song was first released on the seasons of the heart album. it is the only album it has been released on.

Life is just too short for some folks
For other folks it just drags on
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey
Others figure teas too strong

Well, Im the type of guy who wants to ride the middle
I dont like all this bouncing back and forth
Me, I want to live with my feet in dixie
And my head in the cool blue north

In a small suburban garden
Not a single neighbour knows our name
I know the woman wishes we would move some place
Where the houses arent all the same

Jesse, I wish you would take mewhere the grass is greener
I couldnt really say where it may be
Oh, some place high on a montain top
Bown by the deep blue sea

And there well do just as we please
It aint nothing but a breeze

One day Ill be old gray grandpa
All the pretty girls will call me sir
Now where theyre asking me how things are
Soon theyll ask me how things are

Well, I dont mind being an old gray grandpa
As long as youll be my gray grandma
But I wish we would move with our tea and cookies
To the shade of the old pawpaw

There well do just as we please
It aint nothing but a breeze

Life is just too short for some folks
For other foks it just drags on
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey
Others figure teas too strong

Well, Im the type of guy who wants to ride in the middle
I dont like all this bouncing back and forth
Me, I want to live with my feet in dixie
And my head in the cool blue north
