"Iowa Dream" lyrics

"Iowa Dream"

A little patch of grass
And the sidewalk pass by swiftly
The hedge and the greenhouse sing a subtle song
I'm ridin' my bike, I'm doin' what I like
The mayor's home, the city hall, the big red house
I see it see it all

The pedals push so hard
When I ride up on the long hill
I push and I push and it never seems to stop
I'm ridin' my bike, I'm doin' what I like
The mayor's home, the city hall, the big red house
I see it see it all

The mayor gives his hand in a friendly handshake greeting
The middle of the driveway, the gravel of the road
I'm ridin' my bike, I'm doin' what I like
The mayor's home, the city hall, the big red house
I see it see it all

[?] the trees so big and round
And I pass them in my white shirt
The warmth of the day leaves shadows on the ground
I'm ridin' my bike, I'm doin' what I like
The mayor's home, the city hall, the big red house
I see it see it all

The pedals push so hard
When I ride up on the long hill
I push and I push and it never seems to stop
I'm ridin' my bike, I'm doin' what I like
The mayor's home, the city hall, the big red house
I see it see it all

The trees so big and round
And I pass them in my white shirt
The warmth of the day leaves shadows on the ground
I'm ridin' my bike, I'm doin' what I like
The mayor's home, the city hall, the big red house
I see it see it all
