Where do you live? in a brown-stone or an apartment house, a thousand feet tall?
Where do you live? in a penthouse? well, to be honest, I don't envy you at all
'Cause I have a house, far from the city, it may be my own fault, but it's awful pretty
Just an old stone house by a river, with an old dirt road running by
There's a tabby cat and a welcome mat, and a blessed sun in the sky
Just an old stone house by a river, with a few good friends dropping in
There's some big old tree, and a gentle breeze and a little boy with a grin
Oh yes, this is the place for me, oh yes, this is the place to be
The valley and the flowers, the long peaceful hours, and beauty for any eye to see
Just an old stone house by a river, and the door without any key
Just a friendly place for a friendly face, just an old stone house and me
Just a friendly place for a friendly face, just an old stone house and me
