Utah Phillips - Ain't It Fine lyrics

Ain't it fine to have our little babes around us? Our old TV and a coffee pot And all of the other things we've got All safe and alone with no one there to hound us New shingle roof, no little rain can drowned us We've never seen a lawn so green And we cut it all with a big machine And that's alight, our yard and fence surround us Ain't it fine to have so much to hang on to? They cash our checks at the grocery store We don't have to know who lives next door We don't have to thank if we don't want to Ain't it fine to know our country is the best? The other people may think and read We know that all we really need is the Bible And the Reader's Digest Look outside somebody's bombs are falling And as they bend and break the sky We haven't time to wonder why The last thing we hear, the little babes are calling Ain't it fine to have our little babes around us? Our old TV and a coffee pot And all of the other things we've got All safe and alone with no one there to hound us
