"Back To The Land" lyrics

I woke up one morning to a world that was gray
Sunshine was gone and the birds had flown away
I wanted to be in the early mountain dew
Where big city lights are oh so few

Back to the land where water runs free
Back in those hills is where I want to be
Oh, dear Lord, please take me there
Oh, let me breathe your sweet, fresh air

I'm homesick for the land that I used to plow
Please, dear Lord, get me there somehow
Back to the land that I'm so fond of
You can hear the birds a-singing in the blue sky up above

This place I long for has tall, green trees
With birds and flowers and a warm summer breeze
It's where I want to be in the early mountain dew
Where big city lights are oh so few

Back to the land where water runs free
Back in those hills is where I want to be
Oh, dear Lord, please take me there
Oh, let me breathe your sweet, fresh air
