Grazin' in Greener Pastures

Ray Price · For the Good Times/I Won't Mention It Again [Colum [1990]

(Ray Pennington)



Anytime the love's waters grow cold and deep

A grass gets short and then begins to fade

I just go and search of greener fields with taller grass to reep

And shallow water where the man can wade.

And you'll find me grazin' in greener pastures

Livin' on love and laughter.



And the grass is gettin' greener all the time

My fields have no boundary fancies or gates

And the pleasures that grow here grow wild and free

You can't graze but don't forget I like my pastures green.



And when the weeds began to grow I always sleep

And you'll find me grazin' in greener pastures

Livin' on love and laughter.



Haven't got a care to cloud my mind

Grazin' in greener pastures livin' on love and laughter

And the grass is gettin' greener all the time.



--- Instrumental ---



Now and then my mind goes back to other grass

And the many fields that I have left behind

And I like to think that where I've been

I could always go again.



And find the gate open to me anytime

But I'll keep on grazin'...
