Artist/Band: The Oak Ridge Boys
Lyrics for Song: Someplace Green
Lyrics for Album: The Journey [Spring Hill] [2004]



The good Lord made man, then he rested for a little while

Said look what I've done, ain't he pretty, then he cracked a smile

I'll watch him grow, I'll hear him talk, learn to love and fight

But when he's had his fill of these I'll walk him through the night.



To someplace green (someplace green)

Someplace nice (someplace nice)

Someplace that I (ooh-ooh) call paradise

Growin' greener in the rain

Waitin' there for man to claim.



The good Lord looked down on the earth one afternoon and frowned

Said man ain't learned an awful lot since I carved him out of ground

He's built a lot of steeples of clay and rocks and sand

But he hasn't learned to get along with his fellow man.



And someplace green (someplace green)

Someplace nice (someplace nice)

Someplace that I (ooh-ooh) call paradise

Is growin' greener in the rain

Waitin' there for man to claim.



The good Lord's been around a while, he'll turn a tee at least

And I guess he'll be around a while, when time and tide have ceased

Lookin' down from somewhere, tryin' hard to find

If man has earned his paradise the other side of time.



And someplace green (someplace green)

Someplace nice (someplace nice)

Someplace that he calls paradise

Is growin' greener in the rain

Waitin' there for man to claim.



Yes growin' green, green, green in the rai-ai-ain

Waitin' there for man to claim...
